Dr. Lucie Middlemiss and Beverly Searle from the University of Leeds, research partner in the project, have been invited to “City Stories”, the podcast by Energy Cities. Lucie and Beverley have been leading the qualitative data collection in the WELLBASED project, looking at how people in energy poverty felt in their homes, how they dealt with limited access to energy and how this impacted their health and wellbeing. In our conversation Lucie and Beverley share their invaluable insights from over 150 qualitative interviews with people across six cities. We discuss the fragile health condition of people in energy poverty and try to untangle the many complex reasons for it.
