In
multi-agency
youth
offending
teams,
PSRs
can
be
prepared
by
a
far
wider
range
of
staff
than
has
previously
been
the
case.
In
the
light
of
this
and
other
recent
reforms,
NACRO
has
produced
this
good
practice
guide
to
help
professionals
produce
high
quality
reports.
It
covers
the
sentencing
framework,
the
law,
procedural
issues
such
as
quality
assurance
and
missed
appointments,
preparation
and
content
of
reports.

Faith:
A
resource
(sic)
guide
for
mental
and
spiritual
wellbeing
was
compiled
following
research
by
the
Mental
Health
Foundation
which
found
that
spiritual
wellbeing
is
a
major
factor
in
good
mental
health.
The
Guide
lists
and
explains
’emotional
resources’
such
as
psychotherapy
practices,
cultural
and
religious
support
services;
’physical
resources’
which
offer
healing
support
such
as
reflexology
and
massage;
and
’information
and
education
resources’
about
alternatives
to
traditional
medicine.
