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.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
