This report investigates access to independent advocacy services for people with mental health problems, learning disability, dementia and related conditions in Scotland. It is based on information received from health boards, local authorities, and from the new health and social care partnerships (HSCPs). The report also investigates whether the integrated children’s services plans of local authorities cover the provision of independent advocacy services for children and young people with mental illness, learning disability or related conditions. The results show that the planning and provision of advocacy services across Scotland is variable and lacks clarity. It found services for adults were often prioritised for those who were receiving compulsory care or treatment .There is a lack of clarity on which organisation is responsible for co-ordinating the preparation of strategic advocacy plans, and on how advocacy providers and people using advocacy services will be involved in planning. The report identifies significant gaps in service provision for children and young people, with some of the services not providing independent advocacy and very restricted eligibility criteria.
