Advocacy means getting support from another person to help you express your views and wishes, and to help make sure your voice is heard. Someone who helps you in this way is called your advocate.

The Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE) and the University of Central Lancashire have developed a product about Independent Mental Health Advocacy (IMHA) for people detained under the Mental Health Act. It is an information booklet about what Independent Mental Health Advocacy does for people who use services.
