Shrewsbury BID is a business led and business funded partnership working for and representing over 500 members in Shrewsbury.
In April 2019 we began our second five year term, investing £2m into promoting Shrewsbury, representing Business and delivering innovative projects to support and enhance the town centre.
BID2 will see us building on the strong foundations established over the past five years. The BID Board and Team work to provide leadership and representation to champion business within the town and ensure a strong voice on the issues that matter most.
We will work to enhance the trading environment and experience, generating tangible value and cost savings for businesses, promoting and supporting those living, working and trading within the town – as well as inspiring new visitors to discover all we have to offer.
The budgets and action plans for each project area are overseen by Working Groups which include BID Directors and co-opted members of the Business community.

Governance
Shrewsbury BID is solely accountable to its members and is governed by a voluntary board of Directors from a representative range of sectors in the BID area.
The Board meet quarterly to help ensure the priorities of businesses are being met and to monitor performance and delivery. See Key Documents for our Annual Reports and Accounts.
BID Members receive regular email updates on our work and progress against our business plan priorities. We engage our Members on a wide range of town centre issues and invite them to get involved where possible. An Annual Meeting is held each year for the Board and Team to update members on progress against the Business Plan and invite feedback. Feedback is welcomed at any time by getting in contact with the Team.
Shrewsbury BID is a not for profit company limited by guarantee and works closely with industry partners including The BID Foundation, Institute of Place Management and ATCM.
