The Salford Psychiatric Case Register was started in its present form in 1968 and collected data on all persons coming into contact with the psychiatric services who were residents of the old County Borough which had a population of around 130,000 people. Since the reorganization of local authority boundaries, Salford has become a Metropolitan District, with twice the population and the Register has collected data on this new area since 1976.
