Abstract
A community team for mentally disordered offenders in a London borough was reviewed three years after its inception. As this term covers a broad spectrum of people, a profile of the team's clients was compiled and there is some discussion of what might constitute suitable measures of progress for the client group. In view of this, details are provided of reconviction and re‐arrest, hospital re‐admission, Health of the Nation Outcome (HONOS) scales and the views of clients themselves. Low rates of reconviction and re‐arrest were found, and improvements were evident on all other measures.
