After my PhD I held different roles as a researcher and lecturer before coming back to the University of Leeds in the early 1990s. I have since been centrally involved in a series of large research projects at Leeds including the ESRC funded Research Group on Care, Values and the Future of Welfare (CAVA), Real Life Methods (part of the National Centre for Research Methods), and ESRC Timescapes.
