Hull BID Group Meetings

Hull BID endeavours to keep all partners and BID area businesses up to date and informed on its operations and we find face-to-face visits are the most effective way of doing this.   As well as a variety of other communications, Hull BID holds a series of group meetings which are vital to receive feedback and capture opinions from those who essentially guide Hull BID’s objectives.

If you would like more information on any of the below groups, or would like to become a member, please contact Jennifer Marshall on 01482 611802 or via e-mail jennifer@hullbid.co.uk.

Hull BID Board

The Hull BID Board comprises of stakeholders who have in some way a vested interest in the city centre. This includes local authority representation from Hull City Council, Humberside Police, partners and BID area businesses. The Hull BID Board meets bi-monthly and is responsible for supporting the organisation with the wider perspective and overall strategic planning.

Retail Group

Meeting monthly, the Retail Group is an open forum which is tailored to retail and related sectors. This is also an opportunity for traders to network and gain knowledge of future city centre activities. Hull BID uses this forum to gain feedback and opinions from city centre traders. Some non-retail sectors may also find this group of interest and are welcome to attend.  contact jennifer@hullbid.co.uk to reserve a place.

Security Forum

Meeting monthly and chaired by Hull BID Support Officers, the meetings are attended by Humberside Police, the Anti-Social Behaviour Unit, and security teams from BID businesses, ranging from large department stores to smaller independents. Information is circulated regarding prolific offenders and safety and security operations within the city centre.

Evening Economy

Hull BID, along with city partners Hull City Council, VHEY and Humberside Police are committed to raising the profile of the evening economy offering in Hull, particularly early evening.  We meet regularly the Old Town Pubs and Clubs Group and with proprietors of other evening leisure businesses to discuss BID marketing initiatives targeted for this sector.  Valuable feedback is provided by the police regarding control of the city centre, and ideas are shared.
