Around this time of year I do a similar (if slightly less garish) job of pulling together the top 5 Fuse blog posts from the previous year.
But this year is a little different.
It’s award season and this year the blogs listed below were in the running for a coveted gong. Not at the GRAMMYs, Oscars, Emmys, BAFTAs, or BRITs but the (much more prestigious) first ever Fuse Awards!
Earlier this week (30 January), the post with the most views was crowned best blog of 2022 with the author awarded a shiny trophy at our ceremony in Durham *link may contain SPOILERS*.
So without further ado, here is the full list of the runners and writers in reverse order, culminating with the post that received the most views...
“...primarily designing around the needs of the private car - rather than humans - has been a disaster.”
Prof Townshend explores how we can plan for a healthier future by intervening in the built environment. From the 'toxic high street', to the green (and blue) spaces in our cities that encourage physical activity and social interaction, positive for physical health and mental wellbeing.

4. Science, and the art of communication
Posted by Louis Goffe, Research Associate, NIHR Policy Research Unit in Behavioural Science
"...building the evidence-base isn’t enough, we all need to work on at least one aspect of the artistic craft of research promotion."
COVID19 has brought into sharp focus that health promotion takes more than good science, there is an art to the delivery. In this post, Louis explores vaccine misinformation, the infodemic, involving the public and advocacy.

And in at number one our award winner...
1. Universal Credit experiences and research co-production
Posted by David Black, Fuse Public Partner and Expert by Experience. Introduction by Mandy Cheetham, Research Fellow in the Applied Research Collaboration North East and North Cumbria (ARC NENC), Northumbria University
“In the past I'd always found the process of seeking
help from the unemployment benefit system to be
relatively easy, but Universal Credit was a disaster
for me.”
Ever wondered how you could help shape research as a member of the public? In this Fuse blog, David shares his personal experiences of claiming benefits and how this has informed research to assess the impact of Universal Credit.
