What is a LINk?
A Local Involvement Network (LINk) is an independent network of local people, organisations and groups established by law to work together to:
- Encourage and support more local people to get involved in shaping local health and care services by: helping to decide what services should be commissioned, helping to influence the way they are run;
- Actively seek to find out the views of people from every part of the local community on their experience of local health and care services, especially of those who may not often get their point of view across;
- Provide the local community with a way to monitor and review local health and care services and hold commissioners and providers to account;
- Tell those who commission, run and scrutinise local health and care services what local people have recommended to help improve services.
The law provides for Local Involvement Networks (LINks) to be set up throughout England in all local authority areas with responsibility for social services.
