VITAL - Amplifying voices since 1989

  We would like to let you know that VITAL is not commissioned by Bradford Local Authority to provide Advocacy services in Bradford.  Currently different advocacy services are commissioned across 2 main providers which are:

Cloverleaf (ICAT) - enquiries@cloverleaf-advocacy.co.uk

Voiceability - www.voiceability.org/support-and-help/services-by-location/bradford

This may change, so if you need either community or statutory advocacy support please contact the Local Authority directly to find out who the commissioned service provider is at commissioninginbox@bradford.gov.uk

VITAL continues to provide Statutory Independent Mental Health Act Advocacy within specific commissioned settings and some geographically based Community Advocacy and you will be aware that you can still access our services if entitled via our in-reach programmes.  As always we will do our best to respond to queries and where possible are happy to signpost people as appropriate.

Looking Ahead

Advocacy remains at the heart of Vital and our work and as ever we are looking at how we evolve to best support people through advocacy especially for people who have no rights and may be vulnerable due to health and or social status. 

We will be developing our role in providing people with the skills and support they need to self-advocate, and ensuring people who are often not listened to are heard.
