Championing excluded voices

For more than 25 years, The Advocacy Project has been championing people’s right to have a voice, make informed choices, and shape the way they live their lives. We work alongside people who are often excluded or marginalised, helping to break down barriers and make sure everyone is heard and respected.

We’re a team of passionate advocates, connectors, and changemakers – united by a belief in equality, inclusion, and human rights. Our strength lies not just in our expertise, but in the diversity of the people who make up our organisation.

We’re proud to be a strong, well-managed, and forward-thinking organisation – one that never stands still. Together, we’re building a future where everyone has the opportunity, confidence, and support to speak up and shape the decisions that affect their lives.

Vision: a world in which every person has a voice
Mission: to enable people to have their voice heard, uphold their rights and make choices.
Strategy: our new 5-year strategy is now available to read (or in Easy Read format).

Our values

We are kind

We treat people with respect and kindness and appreciate the unique experiences and viewpoints they bring. By creating an organisation where people listen to and value each other, we are building a community where everyone feels included, welcome, and heard. We try to understand how others feel and respond with kindness and care.

We are honest

We always try to do the right thing. That means being honest, fair and open in everything we do. We empower people to make their own decisions: they can trust and count on us.

We believe

We have strength, determination and passion. We’re committed to delivering high quality support and information that makes a difference. We believe in our mission, the people we support, the power of advocacy, user involvement and co-production, and in each other.

We are strong

We’re problem solvers who stay positive and flexible. We’re committed to giving the best support we can, breaking down barriers and pushing through challenges. We work with energy, creativity and joy to help The Advocacy Project thrive.
