Louise’s research projects are diverse but focus on social inequalities and vulnerable populations such disadvantaged women experiencing abuse,  Traveller and Gypsy communities and socially isolated older people.  She evaluates interventions to improve the health of such vulnerable groups drawing upon various methods including feminist participatory approaches and creative tools in order to give people voice and actively participate in the research process.
