UK— Research agency Lawrence F Bailey and Associates is to close its doors at the end of September, as owner Lawrence Bailey concentrates on his role as a marketing and research lecturer at Leeds Business School.

The Research and Psychology Training (RAPT) project run by the firm as a training resource for researchers will also close.

Bailey (pictured), who has been in research for 33 years, said: “All good things need to end some time. I and my colleagues have undertaken some fascinating projects over the years… I am delighted to have the support of Leeds Metropolitan University to make a contribution to the work of the prestigious Leeds Business School.”

Among other things, the firm claims to have conducted the UK’s first email survey in 1984.
