The service must deliver high-quality, legally compliant advocacy covering: Care Act Independent Advocates (CAA), Independent Mental Health Advocates (IMHA), Independent Mental Capacity Advocates (IMCA), Paid Relevant Person Representatives (RPR), NHS complaints support, and Children Act 1989 advocacy. The provider should be modern, responsive, and outcomes-focused, reflecting current legislation and best practice while meeting the diverse needs of Stockport communities.
