Criminal Justice Guides

Are you supporting someone in the criminal justice system?

It can be very difficult for friends and relatives of people with mental health problems going through the criminal justice system. Many of the people who contact us are friends and relatives who want to do the best they can to support their loved one, but they often don’t know or understand the system and feel helpless. We have five guides that cover each stage of the criminal justice system.

These guides will give you reassurance that you are not alone, answer common questions and build your confidence to support your loved one. Each guide also includes a directory of useful contacts for further information, advice and support.
