In celebration of the legacy of Ben Pattison (who sadly passed away in 2020, leaving us heavy-hearted and the housing research community with a great loss), we’re delighted to announce that the Ben Pattison Prize is open for submissions!

In collaboration with the Housing Studies Charitable Trust, this annual award recognises outstanding undergraduate and postgraduate research that reflects Ben Pattison’s enduring commitment to tackling housing inequality.

If you’re a student or an early career researcher – or know of one – working on research exploring housing challenges such as the private rented sector, regeneration, housing and welfare, or health inequalities, this is your moment to shine.

The call for submissions is open until 28 July.

Full details are on the HSA website: https://www.housing-studies-association.org/pages/the-ben-pattison-prize.

Let’s work together to support and celebrate new voices in housing research.
