Welcome to Lambeth LINk

Your Voice Just Got Stronger

Did you know that you can have a say in how your local heath and social care services are provided?

If the answer is no, then read on to find out more about the Lambeth LINk (Local Involvement Network), who we are, what we do and most importantly how you can join the LINk and get your voice heard.

What is Lambeth LINk?

Lambeth LINk is one of 150 independent networks of local people and organisations created by the Department of Health in England to give everyone the chance to say what they think about their local health and social care service - WHAT'S WORKING WELL AND WHAT'S NOT. Any Lambeth resident or organisation can join and it is independent of statutory authorities such as the NHS Lambeth and Lambeth Council.

What can the LINk do? The LINk can?

• Ask health and social care commissioners (for example NHS Lambeth and Lambeth Council) for information or make recommendations about their services, and expect a response within a set period
• Refer matters to Lambeth Council's Overview and Scrutiny Sub-Committee for action and
• Enter specific premises where health and social care services are provided and view the services as they are being provided.

Why and how can I get involved?

• By joining the LINk you can make a real difference in getting the health and social care that you need.
• You can take part in our public meetings and consultations.
• Maybe you would like to join one of our Task and Finish Working groups that you have a particular interest in and can add valule input to.

However you would like to be involved in Lambeth LINk we will be happy to hear from you. We want to hear your views!
