    Eligibility: This course is open to anyone working with children, adults, or families in South Gloucestershire

    The South Gloucestershire Safeguarding Adults Board has commissioned this short bitesize session alongside the provider Voiceability. The bitesize session will consider the different types of advocacy available, who can refer and when you should use an advocacy service.
