Advocacy is about empowering children and young people to make sure that their views and wishes are heard at all times and represented in decision making processes. The Council's vision is that all children and young people in Bristol feel listened to and empowered, have choice and control over their support, and have their rights upheld. Furthermore, the views put forward by children and young people should inform the development of the Council's services. The service will provide advocacy services for Bristol's Children and Young People in Care, Care Leavers and Children and Young People subject to Child Protection conferences.

The service will recruit, train and support appropriate adult volunteers to act as Independent Visitors for children and young people looked after by the Authority. The Visitors role is to befriend and advise these children and contribute towards their social, emotional and educational development
