The LINKS Support Network is facilitated by the National Children’s Bureau (NCB) and is delivered to all organisations grant aided by the National Lottery Community Fund under the Empowering Young People’s (EYP) Programme.
The support provided by LINKS is delivered in a number of ways:
- workshops – on a variety of themes based on the issues facing young people and those facing the organisations that support them

- tailored one-to-one support for individual organisations
LINKS support covers the following themes:
- Sharing learning and best practice;
- Measuring impact and;
- Involving children and young people in project design, delivery and review
