Who are we?
A BID is an arrangement under which local businesses plan how to improve their own trading environment. Businesses identify projects or services that will add value and agree on the level of funds which they pay to make it happen. The BIDs will last for no more than five years when the businesses will have the opportunity to vote again.
What does the BID do?
BedfordBID's projects and services range from creating a cleaner and safer environment to marketing and promotion to attract new visitors to the town. The BedfordBID Bluecaps help make the Town Centre a safer and friendlier place to be for shoppers and workers alike, whilst BedfordBID's promotional campaigns, Town Centre events and entertainment combine with special rates for parking and travel to make it easier for everyone to experience Bedford. BedfordBID also manages and co-ordinates the Town Centre's retail radio-link scheme and helps businesses train their staff in radio operation and crime prevention.

" BedfordBID was the country’s first county town Business Improvement District. In 2005 local businesses said ‘YES’ to the BedfordBID proposal, giving us a five year mandate to enhance our trading environment. Since then it has gone from strength to strength and has been widely recognised as one of the best. "
