To help meet the needs of different people at different times in their life there are several different types of advocacy. We are really pleased that such a range of types of advocacy are supported by Fife Council and NHS Fife and are available to people in Fife.

Our website explains the range of advocacy available to people in Fife and provides details about the organisations that provide these services and how to contact them.
