We provide these specialist advocacy services as an independent provider and are not affiliated with any mental health services, such as drop-ins, residential units or Primary Care Trusts, or government bodies.  As such our service is conflict free and enables our advocates to help our service users to negotiate with service providers impartially.

OTAS also places great value on the provision of professional advocacy services.  Although we acknowledge the role played by volunteers in the provision of advocacy services, our services are provided by trained and paid advocates, which results in a service whose quality is second to none.

Our team of advocates includes qualified family, social care and mental health lawyers, social workers, RGN's and RMN's and we have over thirty years of combined experience in social and healthcare, and in the provision of both social care and legal services. 

We operate a 24 hour system, so you can contact us any time to discuss any needs you may have.  One of our friendly consultants is waiting for your call.  You can also email us, and we will arrange a response to your query within an hour.
