SIR May I write in support of Olive Joy (T&A, May 9) whose daughter has been detained under the Mental Health Act.

I have known Mrs Joy, left, and her daughter, Frances, for a number of years and I can honestly say Frances has never caused any trouble and is certainly not a danger to the public.

I suggest the powers-that-be review their case very quickly and I hope Frances is returned home very soon.

R Halliday, Crag Road, Shipley.
