Harrogate BID has launched the application process for members of the town’s business community to join its Board of Directors for the coming year.
Each year the Business Improvement District offers the chance to business owners and representatives to put themselves forward to join the BID Board.
The BID wants to give every levy-paying business an opportunity to take part in the process of joining the 2025 Board, with applications now open until 5pm on Wednesday, November 6th.
Sara Ferguson, Harrogate BID Chair, said: “It’s important that all sectors within Harrogate’s business community are represented fairly on our Board. Our directors, including myself, are very passionate about continuing to improve our town centre and we want the right people involved to continue to do so.
“It’s a fantastic opportunity to not only make sure the voice of business in Harrogate is heard, but to input ideas and advice as we strive to ensure our town continues to thrive.”
Requirements of becoming a director include having the time to devote to the BID activities, being totally committed to the aims of the BID, willing to make bold decisions and wanting to see Harrogate town centre thrive.
The BID team meet with the Board on a monthly basis in different locations to discuss plans, proposals and projects as the organisation moves forward with its overall Business Plan and objectives.
