Who Cares? Scotland - Action on Advocacy
As the national membership organisation for Care Experienced people, we know first-hand the real-life impact of advocacy. With lots of decisions being made by professionals around them, advocacy empowers a Care Experienced person to have their views heard and rights upheld. That’s why we launched our Action on Advocacy campaign aiming to influence an upcoming Bill in the Scottish Parliament. We called for a statutory right to independent, relationship-based, lifelong advocacy for all Care Experienced people who need it. March 2026, this right was enshrined in the Children (Care, Care Experience and Services Planning) (Scotland) Bill which MSPs passed unanimously.
