This article describes the setting up of a group home in Guildford to accommodate, in two flats, 13 medium-stay patients from Brookwood Hospital. The acquisition of the property, the selection of suitable patients, the initiation of a support group and the activities involved are discussed, as well as the moving arrangements, follow-up and support. Finally, some preliminary suggestions regarding possible improvements for a similar venture in the future are given.
