LINks
LINks (Local Involvement Networks) were introduced in April 2008. One of the aims behind LINks is to provide more people with the chance to shape local care services. Existing members of Patients’ Forums are well placed to be involved early on in the setting up of LINks, but LINks are to be formed of a much wider base and the Government has urged Local Authorities seek the involvement of people involved LINks in user and carer groups, and representatives from the wider voluntary and community sector too.
