​The NHS Complaints Advocacy Service can help you make a complaint about a service you have received from the National Health Service (NHS). The service is free, independent and confidential.

They can help you to understand the NHS complaints process and make a complaint about your issues. If you do not feel comfortable making a complaint by yourself, or you need support at any point during the complaints process, they can give you that support.
