Abstract

Researching the lives of mothers with children under five from the most deprived areas of a major city in the UK during a pandemic was never going to be easy. In this performative reflection I explore how walking and the side-be-sidedness of our interaction facilitated conversation and understanding, between one young mother and myself, while also considering the way a researcher’s thoughts whirl around and respond to what is being shared, though never voiced at the time.
