More information
Jigsaw4u is a child-centered charity supporting children and young people through loss and trauma whilst also empowering them to have a voice in decision-making about their own lives, the development of Jigsaw4u and policy and practice locally, regionally and nationally. The Advocacy and Independent Visiting Service supports children and young people who are in the care of a local authority to have a voice in decision-making about their lives. The service provides advocates who support young people through befriending and ultimately, representation according to their wishes. This could take the form of attending meetings with them, writing letters and/or making telephone calls on their behalf or lastly, to raise or follow up issues with appropriate agencies. Independent visitors are assigned to young people who want an adult friend to visit them regularly and share in ensuring that they are looked after well and supported.
