Prove your high street is working.
huq helps councils, BIDs and regeneration teams understand their places, target interventions where they'll count, and show stakeholders the impact with evidence, tracked over time.
.avif)
Public money, spent on a hunch.
Regeneration and place-making decisions still rest on annual surveys, manual footfall counts and anecdote. So it's hard to know where to intervene, harder to prove the intervention worked, and harder still to report it credibly to members, levy payers and funders.
