But getting the city dressed for summer is not the only project the BID had been busy with recently.

The BID joined forces with the Chamber of Commerce to run a 'Business Brunch' in partnership with world renowned vegetarian restaurant Terre a Terre on the 4th May. (booking details available here).

It also teamed up with the Business Forum's award winning Business Crime Reduction Partnership [BCRP] to offer businesses free membership which includs a Smartphone App which allows members to see photos of local criminals while on the move. A great tool to help fight crime locally.

As well as that the BID has negotiated a deal for BID businesses to advertise in Sussex Style magazine with 25% off the rate card; data on the latest city centre vacancy rates; information about how BID businesses can cut their utility bills and details on how to get on-line with the BID and tweet your message out to over 1,300 twitter followers and 1,500 e-mail subscribers.

The newsletters have now been hand delivered to all 517 BID businesses, to download an e-version, just click on this link.
