Older Peoples Advocacy

Rochdale Law Centre’s Older Person’s Advocacy Service is a free, friendly service for persons aged 55 and over living in the borough of Rochdale.

We can provide Advice, Advocacy and Representation on a number of Community Care and Welfare Issues.

Issues we maybe able to help with include:

• Accessing Services
• Payments for Services
• Accommodation Advice
• Right to an Assessment
• Adaptations to Property
• Advice Regarding Residential or Nursing care
• Advice if you are Leaving Hospital
• Helping you to resolve a dispute or challenge a decision you think is unfair regarding any of the above

Other general legal advice and assistance may also be available. If we are unable to help we will always try to point you in the right direction – so please give us a call if you are unsure!

You can contact us any day except Wednesday afternoons on the Centre’s Advice Line or general office line.

We currently have one full time dedicated Older Person’s Advocate at the Law Centre.

We also offer a Home Visit Service where required at a time convenient to the client.

Rochdale Law Centre is working in conjunction with Mind and Age Concern for the benefit of Older People Living in the borough of Rochdale.
