  I have looked around for ages and can’t find a resolution,
  I want to make a page that links directly to my forum but I don’t know how,
  If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated.

  Try adding a TEXT sidebar widget and putting your href tag in there. I’ve not found a way to make a page to do that….it’s the best option I can think of, whuch stands out. I use the blogroll for some inks too.

  Then create a Page and include the link within the body of that Page.

  If you;re trying to do a header link like a tab, you would have to edit the underlying files of the theme to do that and, since we’re on a shared environment, you can’t I’m afraid because you would be doing that to everybody who used that theme.

  Had another thought…if it’s on a paid host (ie you have FTP control of the blog) you can create a blank page, and edit the URL in the code to your forum. Blogs hosted at wordpress.com don’t allow that feature though.
