I am a Ph.D. Researcher at the University of Leeds. I am interested in understanding the experiences that black or black and white mixed ‘race’ people have had when they have found themselves in contact with the police, either as a victim of crime, when reporting a crime, as a crime suspect or in the course of routine policing enquiries e.g. stop and search. As part of my research I would like to interview black and black and white mixed ‘race’ people across all age groups (16+), both men and women with an opinion or view about policing based on personal experience.
In order to be able to take part you will need to live in the West Yorkshire area and have had experience of policing within this area.
If you would like more information about participating in the research please contact Lisa Long at ssljl@leeds.ac.uk.
