Welcome, Harriet!
Not certain that I can be of any help; but, wanted to open lines of communication. I traveled to UK as a doctoral candidate - about 10 years ago now - and research that includes therapeutic communities has grown into such a passion for me for the past 20 years or so. Much of my research with TCs has been in collaboration with Dr. Keith Warren (Ohio State University), studying how interactions in a community work to bring about change. I currently am providing clinical oversight for our 6 prison-based TCs in Ohio. And, of course, not to be discounted, I have extended family in Scotland, outside of Glasgow, so I enjoy staying connected to my "TC family" across the pond as well!! (and, thinking after this dreadful election here, may want to relocate!!)
Wishing you the best regards in your studies and if I can be of any assistance, please reach out!
