Fancy taking part in some caravanning research? Read on to find out how...

We've had a request from a lady who wants to find out more about caravanners! She's writing a book about women and leisure and needs your help - get in touch with her using the details below!

She is looking for women who are part of 3 generations of one family where all 3 are willing to be interviewed (separately and privately) about their history; for example, a grandmother, mother and grandaughter.

At least one generation should enjoy caravanning, and the youngest generation should be 21 or over, with no upper limit for the eldest. Interview questions will be simply about what, if anything, you enjoy doing and how you find time to do it, and how, or if, it changes with time and age.

The interviews will take place at a place and time to suit  (Samantha can travel to you), and usually last up to an hour. The research will be entirely confidential and she will use pseudonyms for quoting those who take part. Family members will NOT be told what you said.

If you are interested in taking part, please contact Dr Samantha Holland on s.holland@leedsmet.ac.uk
