  Northern Ireland Social Attitudes - 1995

Year: 1995

Module: Social_Networks
Variable: HELPJOB1


Question:
Now we'd like to ask you about some problems that can happen to anyone. First, there are some household and garden jobs you really can't do alone - for example, you may need someone to hold a ladder, or to help you move some furniture. Who would you turn to first for help?
