It is considered valuable for senior registrars to have experience of liaison with other agencies and of setting up and evaluating projects as part of higher training in community psychiatry (Guthrie, Black & Osborn, 1991; Royal College Of Psychiatrists Working Group, 1990). However, this may not be easy to arrange due to, for example, lack of suitable opportunities and insufficient time for initiating a project and carrying it through. Such projects are often difficult to establish and the trainee may find that a good idea founders on a variety of unexpected problems.
