Could you help us make sure every voice is heard?

Vocal Advocacy is looking for new Trustees to join our Board.

We are looking for people who are passionate about equality, inclusion and ensuring that people with learning disabilities and communication difficulties have a voice and are supported to make their own choices.

You don’t need to be an experienced Trustee. We’re interested in what you can bring to Vocal – whether that’s experience in finance, fundraising, governance, communications, business, or simply a commitment to making a difference.

As a Trustee, you’ll help shape the future of an independent charity with over 30 years’ experience of providing advocacy.

If you believe every person deserves to be heard, we’d love to hear from you.

Please share this post with anyone you think might be interested.

Thank you Turning Heads for making us so welcome.

Lovely visit at The Tea Leaf Cafe from the team at Vocal Advocacy.

There are very few people who are able to help you get your voice heard and fight your corner.

These amazing people do it everyday.

Join our team of advocates !

Be the person who listens and stands beside someone when they need it most.

At Vocal Advocacy, we believe everyone has the right to be listened to, make their own choices and have their voice heard.

We are looking for up to four Independent Advocates (up to 20 hours per week) to join our growing team across Exeter & East Devon and Mid & North Devon. Salary: £29,013 per annum (pro rata).

Our advocates are people who are passionate about supporting others to have choice, control and a voice in their own lives. If you share our values, are a great communicator and believe everyone deserves to be heard, we'd love to hear from you. We'll provide the training and support you need to succeed as an advocate.

As an Independent Advocate, you'll work alongside people with learning disabilities and communication difficulties, helping them to:
• Understand their rights
• Speak up about what matters to them
• Make informed decisions
• Build confidence and independence

You'll provide one-to-one advocacy, facilitate peer advocacy groups and help people influence the services and communities around them.

We're keen to build a team that reflects the communities we serve. Although each role is linked to a locality, we're flexible about geographical areas, split posts and working patterns, and we'll work with successful candidates to find arrangements that suit everyone.

Do you believe everyone deserves to have their voice heard?

We are recruiting up to four Independent Advocates (up to 20 hours per week) across Exeter and East Devon, and Mid and North Devon.

Salary: £29,013 per annum (pro rata)

We want to build a team that reflects local communities, so each post is linked to a locality. However, we recognise that people and communities don’t always fit neatly into boundaries. We are therefore open to flexibility around geographical areas, split posts, and how hours are structured, and will work with successful candidates to agree arrangements that work well for both them and the people we support.

As an Independent Advocate, you will support people with learning disabilities and communication difficulties to:
• Understand their rights
• Express their views
• Make informed decisions
• Live with greater independence and confidence

You will provide one-to-one, issue-based advocacy and help establish and facilitate peer advocacy groups, enabling people to support one another and create meaningful change within their communities.

This is a community-based role. Independent Advocates are expected to work across their locality, meeting people in their homes or other community settings. The role requires regular travel within your locality, occasional visits to the Dartington office, and the ability to manage administrative tasks from home.

Whether you're an experienced advocate or have relevant experience supporting people with learning disabilities, combined with excellent communication skills, we'd love to hear from you.

Recruitment pack is available on our Website https://vocaladvocacy.org.uk/get-involved/

Closing date is 17th August 2026
