Secondary Research- Qualitative Research (YELP & TRIP ADVISOR)

For this research I used the website Yelp again. The top five locations I was given with were mostly pubs and restaurants. This perhaps indicate why teenagers end up getting bored and do things they shouldn't. From this I learnt that Banstead is a village mainly aimed towards adults and the elderly, there are no sports or extra curricular activities for kids and teens. In addition to this, based on stats since 1997 teenage obesity has risen by 14% and 12% of them are girls between the age range of 2-15.

From what trip advisor has provided me with there are only 2 notable things to see and go to in Banstead. This is the ever so famous Lavender Fields and Caffe Italia. Lavender fields is visited mostly by tourists and especially Asian people, as they tend to collect natural medications and formula for health and beauty. Caffe Italia is an Italian Café that is mainly aimed towards adults, so that they can chill and catch up with friends and family. This has been very useful for my research as it further proves the point that there is nothing for teenagers in Banstead.
