*Street Sex Workers in the UK: an analysis of service need and provision*
The 'U Turn Women's Project' has secured funding to undertake research
into how support services can better provide for female street sex
workers. The project will run for one year and is recruiting a female
researcher, who can also take on the day to day co-ordination of the
research project. The successful candidate will have research experience
(PhD preferred), good organisational skills, and will be able to work
empathetically with vulnerable women. The research project will use a
qualitative research methodology and will involve training women who
have used support services offered by U Turn or similar organisations to
undertake interviews with street sex workers. The successful candidate
will train and co-ordinate interviewers, as well as undertake interviews
with service providers, and support discussion groups. The researcher
will be based in U Turn’s centre in east London, and can be expected
to travel to case study locations across and outside London. The
researcher will be supported by a Steering Group of two research
consultants and staff from U Turn, and the project will be guided by an
Advisory Group.
