Hello, I’m Megan. I’m doing a research project on when and why people get help for hoarding. I would like to interview people online to understand how services could best help. It would be really great if you would read this information and consider taking part.  You would also receive a £20 voucher as thank you for your time. My details are at the end if you have any questions.

Why am I doing this research?

I am interested in this topic because I have worked with people whose hoarding became a problem for them. I would like to interview people who have looked for or used support to overcome this.

What would participation involve? 

If you express an interest in taking part, I will arrange a brief telephone chat with you to give you further details and (if you want) arrange an interview appointment.

How long will it take?

Interview lengths may vary but are expected to take approximately one hour. 

Where will it take place?

Interviews can take place at your preferred location. Interviews may be carried out online, at your home if you are comfortable with this, or alternatively at a suitably private space such as a room booked at a local university. 

How can you find out more information?

If you think you may be interested in taking part, or would like to discuss this project further, please contact me via email: ummbea@leeds.ac.uk
