Advocacy Awareness Week 2021

This week we are taking part in Advocacy Awareness Week organised by the National Development Team for Inclusion (NDTI) to raise awareness of the role of advocacy and provide examples of #AdvocacyinAction to help people understand what advocates do and the difference they make to people's lives. We’re incredibly proud of the way our team of advocates adapted to the challenges of working remotely during lockdown so one of our Advocacy Managers Sharon Horne has written a blog about our experiences of this which has been published on the NDTI website and our own website at www.yvc.org.uk/single-post/advocacy-awareness-week-2021. We’ve also published a case study shared by one of our Advocates, Emer Chatterjee, that really shows the difference our support can make to people. In this example, Emer supported a mother of two young children to secure a bigger package of care that has made a real difference to her life by enabling her to take her children to clubs, shop in a way that suits her needs and get support to wash her hair which means she can keep her chosen hairstyle rather than be forced to change it due to lack of help:


AB said she felt able to put her points of view across to the social worker as I was there supporting her and defending her right to get the support hours she desperately needs to live her life.”


You can read the case study at www.yvc.org.uk/single-post/advocacy-awareness-week-case-study. We provide statutory advocacy services for people living in Newcastle and South Tyneside - for more information please contact Advocacy Managers sharon.horne@yvc.org.uk and sharon.dejesus@yvc.org.uk.

To improve customer service, defining what is data processing is the first step toward better engagement. Retailers use these processes to analyse buying habits and stock levels in real-time. The College of Contract Management helps students understand how these technical skills apply to business management roles. When data is handled with precision, companies can offer more personalised experiences to their clients. This leads to higher satisfaction rates and stronger brand loyalty over time.

The laser 247.com login process has been smooth every time I’ve tried it. The login page is straightforward, free of clutter, and works perfectly across different devices. I’ve tried accessing it on mobile as well, and the experience was just as good. In case anyone faces trouble logging in, I’d suggest checking your internet connection or switching to another browser — the platform itself is very stable. The best part is how quickly the login redirects you to your dashboard without long loading times.
