Whilst we specialise in supporting people who have a learning disability, we are also able to support people from other client groups such as people with autism, people with brain injuries, physical disabilities or mental health issues, older people and those with dementia. (Subject to funding being available.)  More about what we do is included in our annual report. 

Vocal has been awarded the Advocacy Quality Performance Mark (QPM) by the National Development Team for Inclusion (NDTi).
