About the BID

In 2007, the licensed businesses in Nottingham city centre voted in favour of a Business Improvement District (BID). We Are Nottingham is the company which runs the BID.

A BID is a precisely defined geographical area within which the businesses vote to contribute funds towards a series of mutually beneficial projects to improve trading conditions. The projects delivered by the BID should be over and above those services that are provided by the public sector.

The leisure BID has now been in full operation for over 2 years and has delivered projects from events such as the Food and Drink Festival and the Hockley Hustle music festival, access and safety initiatives such as the teams of taxi marshals ensuring people get home safely at the end of an evening out, and business benefits such as discounted membership to Nottingham Businesses Against Crime and subsidised training.
