What is the research about?
The aim of the research is to look at what happens to mental health service users when they come into contact with the criminal justice system. Experience suggests that communication between the different services is not always effective, which can lead to mental health service users having unnecessary contact with the criminal justice system. We want to find out about people’s journeys through and between these services in order to improve joint working and improve the service user experience.
The Interface Project is part of a research partnership between: King’s College, London, Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, Plymouth University and Devon and Cornwall Constabulary.
