Taking Part is an independent registered charity.  We have been established in Shropshire, including Telford and Wrekin, since 1994 and have been a registered charity since 2002. 

In Shropshire we are a partner of the Advice, Advocacy and Welfare Benefits service providing independent advocacy including Care Act Advocacy to people who have health and social care needs and live in Shropshire.

​

As a small organisation we are very proud to have such a comprehensive reach in supporting a wide range of people in lots of different ways.

We are very pleased to be awarded the Carer Friendly Employer award by Telford & Wrekin Carers Partnership Board, as it recognises our organisation as being 'Carer Friendly' - looking after our own as well as the wider pubic in the county.
