Were you a teenager in E. Sussex in the 1960s?

(posting on behalf of Lily Mountford, student at the University of Oxford):

“ I am currently writing a thesis on the experience of teenagers in east Sussex in the 1960s. I am looking for volunteers who are willing to be interviewed about their experience as a teenager in east Sussex in the 1960s. It would only take about an hour of your time, and there is no pressure to have any remarkable stories whatsoever! If anyone would like to participate or have any questions, feel free to email me at [email protected] . Thank you for taking the time to read this!”
