Working Groups

Bury BID runs Town Centre Management, Pubwatch supporting nighttime economy and Events and Marketing working groups.

These working groups strive to enhance Bury’s urban landscape, foster business partnerships, provide valuable training opportunities, and provide opportunities for BID levy payers to raise and discuss the issues that matter most.

Town Centre Management

The BID’s Town Centre Management group meets monthly. Discussion points include waste management, anti-social behaviour, deep cleaning and graffiti. These meetings are action-focused and seek to find appropriate and practical resolutions.

To join the meeting or raise a discussion point, please email us.

Bury BID Working Groups

Pubwatch – Supporting the night-time economy

This working group is focused on working with our night-time economy businesses including pubs, bars and restaurants. Including representatives of those businesses, licensing, GMP, Bury Council and the BID Team, the group meets monthly to discuss issues and initiatives to support a thriving night out in Bury.

Events and Marketing Group – Driving footfall and promoting the town

This working group is focussed on maximising opportunities for Bury town centre during key periods when the town needs support to encourage more visitors. From seasonal events including Bury BID Food Festival and seasonal lighting to destination campaigns and partnership marketing opportunities.

Visitor Data – Learning about our visitors

Bury BID also works to improve data monitoring and sharing to understand how the town is performing and who is visiting. Bury town centre reports are produced monthly.  This information is essential to support decision making for future events and marketing activity.
