In this article we compare a recent audit of the group psychotherapy service at the Maudsley Hospital with Foulkes's description of the same Unit during his tenure there. During this time huge changes have occurred in the NHS (UK National Health Service) both in service delivery and in the way audit is carried out — the main reason why we believe that comparing the two time frames will be of interest to those working in this field. We will also present some more detailed findings from the more recent audit. To set the scene, a description is offered of how the service was organized at these two time points.

Key Words: group psychotherapy • length of therapy • survival analysis • Foulkes • patients
