I am writing on behalf of the Advocacy Working Party of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, which has been charged with the responsibility of updating the Council Report on Advocacy published in 1999.

Advocates working on behalf of patients are going to become a more regular feature of our working lives and we intend to produce a document that reflects real experiences, as well as ideal practice. To this end, we would like to invite any member of the College to write to us about their experience, both good, bad and indifferent, of advocacy in practice.

This would help up to formulate a realistic account of present practice, in the proposed chapter on the role and responsibilities of the psychiatrists and advocates.
