Link workers duties have been varied from regular outreach to attending residents and carers meetings to assisting with specific pieces of work like assisting when significant changes are occurring within the home, evaluation surveys, on-going user involvement or  training.   

The link worker scheme was targeted towards residential establishments to improve access to advocacy and aimed to build relationships with staff while giving residents and patients the opportunity to find out more about advocacy in an informal basis within a programme of regular outreach and specific issue based meetings.
