KEEPING NORTHALLERTON SAFER

KEEPING UP STANDARDS The BID partnered with Hambleton District Council to complete the Northallerton Design Guide, which will influence the town’s environment and local planning for years to come. It sets high standards for the quality of everything from paving stones to litter bins and bicycle racks.

The BID continues to work closely with North Yorkshire Police and the Safer Hambleton Hub on security within Northallerton’s central commercial area. We jointly promote Shopwatch and the BID funds the DISC retail security app.

We are also contributing £10,000 to the Heritage Action Zone, which includes shopfront improvements, as well as £10,000 to the Connections Project to enhance alleys including New Row.

SERVING MORE BUSINESSES We have attracted a record number of new Voluntary Contributors in the past year and we are delighted to welcome them to the BID. These businesses either fall below the BID levy threshold or are outside the BID area but are keen to be part of our activities and appreciate their value for the town.
