Interviewers

We would like to express our gratitude for the excellent and professional work of the telephone interviewers from the Hunter Valley Research Foundation’s call centre, and especially Evan Stevenson, as well as the staff of the Social Research Centre (opens in a new window) including Darren Pennay, Rachel Breman and Elaine Moss.

The data presented in these web pages has come from the survey responses of close to 20,000 ordinary Australians (link to surveys and sample sizes). We are deeply indebted to those respondents for their time and candour.
