Do you have a business in Blackburn town centre?


















Blackburn Town centre Partnership would like to invite you to a Blackburn Town Centre Business Improvement District (BID) consultation event on Thursday 25th October 2012.

The event will take place in the Hornby Lecture Theatre at Blackburn Library on Town Hall Street from 5.30pm - approx 7pm.

The aim of the evening is to explain a little more about what a BID actually is, what it could do for the town and how much it might cost.

There will be a short presentation and then plenty of time for question and answers, discussion and opportunity to voice your views.

If you have a business in Blackburn town centre, it's really important that you try and attend, even if its just for a short while. We need to know what you think!

Programme for the evening:from 5pm - Theatre open - the Hornby Theatre is on the first floor of the library, just go up the stairs or lift and along the corridor.

5.30pm - Welcome and introductions - who are the Blackburn Town centre Partnership Board and what do we do?

5.40pm - Blackburn BID - what's it all really about?

5.50pm - Proposals so far - find out what businesses have already told us and what we think might be a good plan of action to support the town centre and local trade.

6.10pm - How much will it cost? - what will it mean for your businesses in pounds and pence?

6.20pm - Q & A - lets be open and honest - is there anything you really want to know about the BID?

6.40pm - Business Feedback - now is the time to tell us what you think - will you be voting yes?
