Mental Health Advocacy Project (West Lothian)

We provide professional advocacy services for people using mental health services in West Lothian.

Our service is independent and not connected with providers of mental health services or carers.  This means that we can act on someone?s behalf in a way which is completely free from conflict with any other agency or service.

Why would I need advocacy?

People may need advocacy to help them:

  • Speak to professionals, such as doctors, nurses, lawyers, social workers, employers etc
  • With representation in meetings
  • With written communication
  • Locate/access information or services


Who can ask for Our Service?

Anyone between 18 and 65 with a mental health illness in West Lothian.
