Case study: pride in place
Feeling Towns was part of the AHRC Place Programme, running from 2022 to 2024. It sought to understand and provide evidence for pride in place. It explored the correlation between place attachment—the emotional bond between people and place—and the health of local cultural ecologies. It used a variety of creative methods to understand what pride meant to different communities. We worked with policymakers and heritage organisations to understand how pride could be meaningfully evaluated. Pride in place was a key, exploratory metric in the 2022 Levelling Up White Paper. We engaged with policymakers from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC), and arts and heritage practitioners, to explore the kinds of metrics and approaches that pride required.

Abstract
Feeling Towns was part of the AHRC Place Programme, running from 2022 to 2024. It sought to understand and provide evidence for pride in place. It explored the correlation between place attachment—the emotional bond between people and place—and the health of local cultural ecologies. It used a variety of creative methods to understand what pride meant to different communities. We worked with policymakers and heritage organisations to understand how pride could be meaningfully evaluated. Pride in place was a key, exploratory metric in the 2022 Levelling Up White Paper. We engaged with policymakers from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC), and arts and heritage practitioners, to explore the kinds of metrics and approaches that pride required.
