Extract

In 1968 a new regional child psychiatry unit was opened in Birmingham, followed in 1969 by a regional adolescent unit. These events coincided with a general recognition of the need to train more child psychiatrists. It thus became possible to plan a new training scheme, using the new units, without the constraints which might have resulted from the existence of an established pattern of postgraduate training.
