POhWER

POhWER help people who, because of disability, illness, social exclusion and other challenges, find it difficult to express their views or get the support they need.

Our mission is to empower people to have a voice and make a real difference to their lives. We do this by speaking for them when they can't and supporting them to speak for themselves when they can.

We are a charity and the advocacy, information and advice services we provide are free, independent and confidential.

POhWER has been working to effect rights-led change in British society since 1996. POhWER was set up by service users who, tired of others making assumptions about their capabilities and views, wanted equal access to information and a voice of their own.
