Advocacy services
An advocate is someone who can help you get your rights. They can act on your behalf when dealing with any organisations you may have a problem with, or would like help from. They can act as a go-between and handle complaints and requests for you, and will look out for your best interests. They can also help to influence service providers to supply a better service for you and other people in your situation.

28/12/2008
A delay in banning ageism before the next election has frustrated Help the Aged as the charity fears the government is risking 'breaking its promise' of an integrated equality law.
Ageism and age discrimination
Ageism is making assumptions about someone because of their age. Age discrimination happens when prejudice turns into words or actions that mean someone is treated worse because of their age. Older people experience age discrimination in many different ways, including being abused or harassed, made redundant, refused health care, or seeing negative advertising about older people.
Alternatives to living at home
Taking the step of moving out of your home is a difficult and important decision and you should be sure it is the right decision for you. It is not always a good idea to make such an important decision in a hurry or at a time of crisis, although of course this is sometimes unavoidable.
