VOICEABILITY

Empowerment Matters worked with VoiceAbility to produce a new Practice Guide for challenging decisions or actions with or on behalf of individuals involved with social care and health services... We aim to provide up to date, high quality, Mental Capacity Act/DoLs advocacy, training, information and resources... Empowerment Matters was set up in 2012 by Jakki Cowley and Sue Lee having worked together managing the National IMCA Support Project at Action for Advocacy from 2009 - 2011 having previously both managed busy and successful IMCA services in Manchester and Cambridge. The IMCA Support Project was funded by the Department of Health for 2 years as part of the implementation of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA). During this time Sue and Jakki created a range of guidance on the Act for health and social care professionals and IMCAs.
