| Annotation | Data is presented from two studies of support networks conducted in North Wales and Northern Ireland. Five types of support networks are identified and it is show that the distribution of network type is related to community; and further shown to be influenced by population stability and density. It is argued that since network type is correlated with service use, identification of network type provides a useful tool for policy makers and practitioners in the context of care in the community.
