Are you, or is someone in your household, a disabled person, an older adult, expecting a baby or the parent of a small child?
We would really like to talk to you and understand the residential space from your perspective.
Dear Residents,
You might already be familiar with Catalina’s research project on Inclusive Design in the Olympic park area. Catalina is a PhD student from Oxford Brookes University. She visited Chobham Manor last December 2020 to invite residents to participate in a survey. You may have talked to Catalina about her project at the time or received some information in the post. As part of the study Catalina would like to speak to some Chobham Manor residents about their experience of living in your home and the neighbourhood.
Good and inclusive space design is beneficial to all of us. However, some of our community members are more vulnerable to being negatively affected by bad design and barriers present in the built environment.
Are you, or is someone in your household, a disabled person, an older adult, expecting a baby or the parent of a small child? If so, you have a unique way of inhabiting the space. Your life experience makes you more aware of possible challenges and barriers present in the built environment and what works and what doesn’t work for you within those spaces.
Catalina would like to make this study as easy and interactive as possible. Due to the current circumstances, she will do this from a distance via online interviews, videos and photographs to share ideas and discuss them.
If you would like to participate, email Catalina at 17092880@brookes.ac.uk. Catalina would be very grateful to get the chance to talk to you and to learn from your experience.
