Working on a Dream

Abstract

As one of the partners of the project, Seven Doors approached The University of Edinburgh to offer the opportunity to a student to conduct a piece of work within the project. As one of the authors was considering options for her thesis for MSc Childhood Studies, she conducted an ethnographic study of the project, focusing on the experiences, views and opinions of young people and care staff participating in the project, and this produced some of the results which will be discussed in this paper.
