  16. Approach: the national picture • Literature review • Expert interviews

  17. Approach: the regional picture • Mapping stakeholders across the pathway • Stakeholder interviews • Focus groups of staff and service users • Surveys • Site visits • Documentary and quantitative evidence • Stakeholder events

  18. Work so far • 17 interviews with national experts • Site visits to CJLD services • 37 interviews with regional stakeholders • 1 focus group of prison mental health team managers • 2 service user focus groups • Surveys of probation staff and court staff

  19. Limitations Only five months available for analysis Large number of relevant stakeholders Focus on adults Limited resources in terms of what can be done next Changing service landscape nationally with significant uncertainty

  20. Emerging picture(Headline findings) Problems identifying LD throughout system Tension between police and health services over the use of s.136 Maximising coverage of CJLD services Out of hours provision of support for both clients and professionals Strengthening existing care pathways & opening new pathways Increasing provision of information to courts Sharing information across prison-community boundary and incompatible IT systems Overcoming barriers to release planning
