CADMHAS are, in partnership with North Wales Advice and Advocacy Association (NWAAA), providing a community advocacy service in Gwynedd and Ynys Môn.
Our advocates are able to provide independent issue-based advocacy support in relation to a range of specific issues.
Community Mental Health Advocacy
Our advocates are fully qualified and able to provide support to people with mental health conditions.
All our advocates can listen to individuals’ concerns and provide information about their rights, to enable an informed choice. Our advocates can then support the individual to access appropriate assistance from relevant agencies. This empowers individuals to become more involved in the decisions that are made about their lives.
In order for our advocates to provide this service, clients must meet the following criteria:
- Be a resident of Gwynedd or Ynys Mon,
- If you are a resident in a care home, you must have been placed there by Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board,
- Be a minimum of 18 years’ old,
- Able to identify with having mental health issues.
How do I make a referral?
All referrals will be dealt with by NWAAA.
To make a self-referral, you can contact the service by calling 01248 670852, or by emailing enquiry@nwaaa.co.uk
