Advocacy Services

To provide independent advocacy support in line with statutory requirements in the Kirklees areas.

This service works to empower individuals across Kirklees to know their rights, make choices and decisions about their lives and to ensure that their wants, needs and wishes are heard. There are a number of different types of advocacy provided by this service.

The Kirklees Autism Partnership Board have asked Touchstone ASK4Advocacy Service to support the development of a reference group for autistic adults.

The purpose of the reference group is to enable autistic adults to have a voice in developing and improving services and to raise issues that affect their lives.

This website aims to provide information about local Kirklees services, events and meetings and an opportunity for autistic adults to engage with the people who organise and run them.
