About us

Asist provides specialist independent advocacy support focused on one-to-one, issue-based advocacy for people with learning disabilities, physical disabilities and/or mental health issues.

We support people to make small and big decisions in their own lives and to speak to services who make decisions because of a person’s health or disability.

Advocacy is about enabling people to have an equal voice in the choices and decisions that affect their lives.

Asist advocates will not be judgemental and will not guide or influence the people they work with; advocacy is about including people in their own story.

An Asist advocate can support people to:

  • find information about their options
  • discuss and understand their situation and the choices available to them
  • speak up; by supporting at meetings and reviews, including those with health and social care services.

Asist is nationally recognised for developing, writing and promoting the Watching Brief guidance which outlines the core principles that underpin all Non-Instructed Advocacy support services across the UK.
