My name is Alexandra Boyle; I am an East Dulwich resident and also a PhD student at Queen Mary University of London, within the School of Geography. My PhD research hopes to understand how retired Londoners keep in touch with family and friends using different communication technologies. So if you are a retired Londoner, I would love speak with you about how and why you use technology!


Who can take part?

Retired men and women who live within the Greater London area.


What will I be asked to do?

An interviewer will come to talk with you for about one hour. 



Where and when?

Interviews will be arranged at times and locations to suit you. You can choose whether to be interviewed at your home, or a nearby location (e.g. community centre, caf? etc.) and I will travel to meet you or we can arrange for a room at the Queen Mary University of London, Mile End campus.


Please consider asking friends or family if they would like to take part. Thank you for reading!


To volunteer or for further information please contact Alexandra Boyle (Postgraduate Researcher) on 07424 663 964 or at [email protected].

Hi LadyNorwood,

Thank you for taking the time to respond and your interest in this project.

There is no age requirement; I am interested in speaking to people of a range of ages so long as they have retired from paid employment.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks!

Alexandra.

    • Dunstans Road  comes under Dulwich Hill SNT- you can get their details on the Met Police website . I know that the Police are often patrolling Dawson Hights. Please contact them,
    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? I don’t want people to feel like they need special clothes just to walk or cycle. If you have lights and reflectors and you’re on well lit city streets, there is no reason why drivers shouldn’t be able to see you, assuming of course, that they're driving with due care and attention. But yes, if there are lots of people without lights, that should be addressed. I suspect in part, it's the change over in seasons and the fact that people are getting caught out by how early it's getting dark now (obviously no excuse).
    • Found it but cannot contact owner as no email or message on it. e*****@icloud.com   please let me know if you’ve recently lost an Apple Watch SE
    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them.
