What We Cover

Step by step support for your BID

There are over 300 BIDs in the UK which create over £140 million of income a year – so this is a big industry that is affecting places up and down the country.

The Regulations require each BID term to be for a maximum of 5-years so, every year, there are circa 60-70 renewals.

Whether developing a new BID or renewing an existing, it is a huge amount of work and requires deep understanding of the BID Regulations.

Build A BID aims to guide people through every stage and explain the intricacies of what is required to operate a ballot.
