This book examines the provision and practice of Appropriate Adults who attend for vulnerable groups – juveniles, those with learning disabilities or mental health problems held in police detention. What are the strengths and weaknesses of provision and practice, and how might Appropriate Adult services best be provided for vulnerable suspects in custody? The role, work and provision of Appropriate Adults is examined from the perspectives of detainees, police and those working within and managing Appropriate Adult schemes for the first time in one volume.
