Stockport town centre’s Business Improvement District (BID) has been in place since April 2017 following a successful “Yes” vote in 2016. Known as ‘Totally Stockport’, the BID unlocks £2m of additional funding over a 5 year period. This is allocated to priority projects identified by businesses within the BID area.
The BID has a manager and a series of Steering Groups, each made up of representatives from businesses within the BID area. They are working together to devise, manage and deliver initiatives and events for the benefit of businesses and visitors to the town centre.
