Advocacy Support Cymru (ASC) is a specialist advocacy provider currently delivering independent advocacy services in much of South Wales.
We provide information on patient’s rights and empower and help them exercise those rights. We provide a voice for individuals so that their needs and preferences are given consideration in the planning of their medication treatment and care.
An Advocate will help patients to understand what choices they have and will get information they need.
ASC provides statutory Independent Mental Capacity Advocacy (IMCA), Independent Mental Health Advocacy Service (IMHA) and Community Mental Health Advocacy to qualifying patients in a large part of South Wales.
