Welcome to our information hub!

The hub contains SIAA’s publications, including independent advocacy guidance, research reports, and policy briefings. We also include interesting books, videos, and leaflets as well as other resources useful for understanding independent advocacy in Scotland.

If you are new to independent advocacy, the best place to start is with the Independent Advocacy Principles, Standards and Code of Best Practice, which is the key foundational document for independent advocacy in Scotland.
