Advocacy for respite?

Our respite provision was removed in September last year on a safeguarding issue. Our LA has tried and failed to find a solution and I'm feeling left behind. Is there an advocacy service out there that I can use does anyone know?
Thanks!

What is SN? If ASD comes into it somewhere then try NAS helpline 0808 800 4104 Monday to Friday 10 - 4.
Other disabilities have equivalent helplines too.
Also local groups eg Downs Syndrome Association has local groups //www.downs-syndrome.org.uk
NAS has local groups and there are local groups for other disabilities

I hope this is helping...

He's undiagnosed, so a SWAN, which doesn't help us call a specific one!

OK so what were the reasons for respite in the past?
