On this page there is more information about our projects and services.

Advocacy for All started in 1995 as Bexley and Bromley Citizen Advocacy, a citizen advocacy project for people with a learning disability. At the time we had one co ordinator working in Bexley and one in Bromley.

In 2005 we started England's first advocacy project for people with Autism and Asperger's syndrome.

Today we have 24 staff and 60+ volunteers.

Now we support:

  • Short term advocacy
  • Citizen advocacy
  • Crisis advocacy
  • Self advocacy (speaking up)
  • Peer advocacy
