was alleged by a neighbour that her son had made threats to kill him. She said that the police
initially charged her son with making threats to kill; after seeing video evidence they charged
him with a ‘Public Order Offence’. She said that around the time of this alleged incident her
son was in his flat with some friends. Her son was not allowed to his flat and was bailed to
her flat where he stayed until December 2016. She said that the CPS after seeing evidence
dismissed the case a day before the trial. She said that the council has never taken the
responsibility to look at evidences; the allegations made against her son (physical assault,
letting his dog on the loose) have not been proven. She said that on the 9th August in court
the Judge ordered Enfield Council to move her son to a 2-bedroom flat but the Council
wants/plans to evict him instead. She said that the Council has no grounds to apply for her
son’s eviction.
She said that her son has a one bedroom flat. She said that he does not want to live there. She
said that he needs a 2 bedroom flat with the plan that his cousin could stay with him to
provide emotional support. She said that her son has everything he needs in the flat. She told
me that her son is very independent in activities of daily living; his personal care is extremely
good; he cooks for himself, maintains the flat and takes responsibility for his bills. She told
me that he has no financial difficulties/no debts.
She said that her son has a work history. In 2010 he was planning to set up a business in the
entertainment industry. He has also built websites in relation to this. At present he is not in
employment. He is in receipt of Employment Support Allowance but needs to make an
application for Personal Independent Payment.
I asked her if she thinks her son has a mental illness; she told me that he suffers from stress
and anxiety due to issues with the neighbours but does not think he has a mental illness. She
said that the judged looked at evidence and did not grant a warrant in October 2018 for a
mental health act to take place at her son’s flat.
I asked Ms Cordell if she thinks her son could benefit from support from the community
team. She said that he could do with some support but "we should stop labelling him as being
delusional as he is not delusional”.

Barnet, Enfield and Haringey
Mental Health NHS Trust
After-Care
Potentially Mr Cordell care/treatment would be delivered via the Care Programme Approach.
I am the allocated Care Coordinator and he will have a responsible clinician in the
community.
My role would be first of all to build a relationship with Mr Cordell as I have only met him
on 2 occasions. I will try to motivate him to engage with myself and the multidisciplinary
team. As his Care Coordinator I will review Mr Cordell regularly independently and with the
Community RC.
We have a Team Clinical Psychologist and it would be vital for Mr Cordell to have some
form of talking therapy. This is on the basis of the stress and anxiety that his mother states he
suffers from.
We have a Dual Diagnosis Worker in the team who could offer drug counselling if necessary.
We have an organisation called ‘Remploy’ which is funded by the Local Authority.
Potentially they could support Mr Cordell to find work. They meet regularly with clients
whilst they are in work and also liaise with employers.
I could support Mr Cordell in making an application for PIP. Alternatively, he could get that
support from ‘Enfield Well-Being Connect’
The Mental Health Enablement Team could provide support in tenancy management as well
as support to access education/training and work.
