You are welcome to use an advocate to help you submit your complaints and appeals and Kids+ can provide you information on who you can speak to if an advocate might be needed.
We’d be grateful if you could identify whether your feedback relates to someone under 18. This will ensure we take into account any additional child safety considerations when undertaking our investigation. If you would like to discuss this further, please contact us on the details below.
