SCNs – Linkage with Think Kidneys website
Update on the Think Kidneys national programme Karen Thomas 10/12/15
2. And which of these two options do you think would be most appropriate to share information on the website?
» a) The Think Kidneys team could add the SCN work to the site by dividing it into the relevant sections on the site e.g. events could go on our calendar with links back to the SCN to register etc., case studies in case studies, other documents in resources etc.
» b) The second option is to have the SCNs as a body in the resources section of the website and add links for each SCN back to their individual websites, or to other areas of the think Kidneys website where we could add material as content. We could add a dropdown from the resources tab, listed as SCNs and put links to the SCNs or specific content on separate pages.
