AH
I am a trainee Counselling Psychologist studying for my doctorate at London Metropolitan University. I am conducting a research study that aims to hear directly how lone fathers make sense of their experience, how their experience has shaped their relationship with their children and the resources they use to address any potential difficulties they may or may not have. 

 I am getting in contact to see if you are able to help with my recruitment process in any way you can.

Accessing my desired participants is extremely challenging so would appreciate any assistance. I have more information to hand so please do let me know if you would like further details and if you think you might be able to help me in any way.

I am happy to come and meet with you or to attend a single dad group/event to explain my study.  I will be able to do so from May 2014 onwards.

Many thanks and best wishes,

Anna Hovris

Hi! I'm a lone father but I'm a bit confused, who is the above post directed at? Are you asking for volunteers or asking for help in finding volunteers?

It looks like AH is wanting to visit the Head Office if there are any established groups of dads there?

Hi

 Thank you for replying. I am very sorry about the confusion. I am actually looking for volunteer participants to take part in my study that aims to hear directly how lone fathers make sense of their experience, how their experience has shaped their relationship with their children and the resources they use to address any potential difficulties they may or may not have.

Please let me know if you are interested. I can forward you more informaton regarding the study.

Would it be possible to give me your email address and I can attach more information about the study for you. Alternatively you can send me an email at anh0645@my.londonmet.ac.uk . I can then call you at a time convenient to you.

Thank you in advance for your support. Anna.
