The UK Psychiatrists Huntington's Disease Group was formed in 1999 and meets twice yearly at the Royal College of Psychiatrists. The Group consists of Members and Fellows of the College who have an interest in Huntington's disease. The aim of the Group is to improve the clinical management of Huntington's disease in the UK and in particular the management of its psychiatric consequences. The specific aims are: the development of assessment and treatment guidelines; the creation of training opportunities; the creation of a support network for psychiatrists with an interest in the disease; and the facilitation of research on the management of the disease. A website is under construction and may be found at www.huntingtons.org.uk. For further information, or to take part in the group, please write to Dr Ken Barrett, The Neurobehavioural Unit, The Haywood Hospital, High Lane, Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire ST6 7AG.
