The purpose of Lanarkshire Links is to support mental health service users and carers to be involved in the process of planning services and service provision. This will include ensuring that service providers are informed about problems with existing services and current examples of good practice which can be rolled out to other areas. That the process of involvement is inclusive and not detrimental to peoples’ health and welfare and that we can truly influence the services available in Lanarkshire.
