Independent Care Act Advocacy in South Tyneside

We are pleased to announce that from Thursday 28th March 2024 we are the new provider of Independent Care Act Advocacy services in South Tyneside. 

This service supports people who have been referred by South Tyneside Council because they need help to understand or express their views while a Care Act process such as a social care assessment or review, support plan, carer’s assessment or safeguarding enquiry is carried out for them.
