Research Fellow
Jack Rendall is a Research Fellow in the Yunus Centre for Social Business and Health. He has been at GCU since 2010 coming through his Undergraduate, Master’s, and PhD, and has also spent time as a Research Associate at Nottingham Trent University.
Jack uses a variety of methods in his work, but he has a particularly keen interest in the use of Q Methodology to elicit shared perspectives on different topics. In his doctoral work he used Q Methodology to explore the perspectives of those working in Scottish social enterprises and how they view job quality.
Jack is currently working as part of a UK-wide team funded by the NIHR which aims to evidence how community-led organisations impact upon the health and wellbeing of people in disadvantaged areas. He also runs a podcast about Q methodology and is Chair of Lingo Flamingo, a Glasgow-based social enterprise that focusses on delaying dementia in older adults through language learning.
I have worked on a variety of different projects, but my research largely focuses on how community organisations impact upon health and wellbeing.
