This is why we founded High Streets UK, in partnership with Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) from across the country. Together, the founding members—BIDs from Aberdeen, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Leeds, Liverpool, London, and Newcastle—represent over 5,000 businesses, contributing an impressive £50 billion in GVA annually. The millions of visitors drawn to these vibrant destinations from each year bolster local economies and sustain thriving communities. The Government must acknowledge their value and act to secure their future.
