AnnotationThis article focuses on the issue of financial abuse, arguing that this has been comparatively neglected in work with users of mental health services. Using a case history approach, it discusses the concept and definitions of financial abuse and the perspectives of practitioners working in community support services. Issues of gender and mental capacity or incapacity are raised and the discussion is placed in the context of current service organisations within the UK. (OFFPRINT) (RH).
