| Tiivistelmä: | This paper aims to explore the relationship btw. quality of life (QOL), well-being and holiday participation among low-income families in the UK. Evaluated are the types of reasons given for financial assistance in applications to the Family Holiday Association including follow-up research with a sample of successful applicants on the perceived benefits of the holiday, including questions on factors of QOL. Despite limited in scope, the findings do indicate that increases in QOL were reported among low-income families. It is concluded by arguing that further research on adapted well-being and QOL measures be applied to tourism consumption. |
