AnnotationThe authors argue that there are clear methodological advantages to involving service users in peer interviewing. They discuss peer interviewing in terms of strategic risk and limitations, as well as practical and ethical considerations. Ways of developing peer research in general are also discussed. The chapter draws on two studies on homelessness research, one on day centre services and the other for substance abusers. (RH).
