Abstract

In this chapter, I reflect on the ethical challenges involved in doing research into a topic which involves some risk to participants and therefore how carefully I needed to proceed. At the same time, the research raised a number of issues not only about my responsibilities as a researcher but also the way in which ethical issues are dealt with institutionally in a ‘one size fits all’ manner which does not at all reflect the real and practical issues we as qualitative researchers face.
