This unit would include looking at the demographic and socio - economic characteristics of their chosen places. With this in mind Tower Hamlets is a rich resource to draw on and whether or not you chose to make it the subject of some fieldwork we would be pleased to help you with resources for teaching this topic. Here are some to get you started:
