This article looks at Xpress, a well established advocacy service in East Sussex which provides advocacy for children and young people between the ages of eight and 21 years old. These children are either 'looked after' by a local authority or have left care, or have a learning or physical disability or a mental health difficulty. Many of the children have serious difficulties communicating verbally.
