These guidelines are designed to support good practice in service user and carer involvement in the work of clinical psychologists and within clinical psychology services.
They could also be used by service users and carers to lobby services for (good practice) service user and carer involvement in local services.
The guidelines are intended to be aspirational, but also to provide a framework within which a locally relevant, genuine involvement culture can prevail.
