Business Improvement Districts (BIDs)

How BIDs are helping businesses in Elmbridge.

A thriving, sustainable borough with vibrant town and village centres at the heart of our communities is integral to our vision for Elmbridge.

Through both the draft Local Plan and Business Improvement Districts (BIDs), we have the means to make this happen.

Our draft Local Plan will create the pathway for economic growth, while BIDs drive extra investment with sustainable resources, a strong 5-year business plan and partnership working between the businesses, council and local groups. A winning formula for a thriving community.

In Elmbridge we have 2 BIDs:

  • Walton-on-Thames BID
  • Cobham BID

About Business Improvement Districts

Business Improvement Districts are business-led partnerships that are created through a ballot process to deliver additional services to local businesses.

They can be a powerful tool for directly involving local businesses in local activities and allow the business community and local authorities to work together to improve the local trading environment. 

For more information see Business Improvement Districts: GOV.UK.
