Using letters from respondents

[Victoria Knight]

I’ve done some research using letters sent to me from prisoners, prommpted by a letter in a national prisoner newspaper. I am finding it difficult to source any literature about using such techniques. Can anyone advise me where or what I might find discussions on this?

look forward to hearing from you

Hi Victoria,
A while back I attended a workshop where one of the presentations was on young people in care and links with the criminal justice system. The talk was fascinating and I remember the speaker had done some research using letters from prisoners. I do not remember the details of the research, but the speaker was Dr Claire Fitzpatrick from Lancaster University. Hope this helps,
Alex
