The activities create something special for the town. They give families something to do together and we've seen lots of new faces coming to do together and we've seen lots of new faces coming in to the shop as a result. The BID should be proud of itself.

Your BID member update emails were so helpful all the way through the lockdown and after.

I think the response to the BID's trails has been great! Children have been coming in with their parents to look at the sculpture, taking pictures and looking around the store while they're here.

Blackburn BID's security patrols have been fantastic to say the least and is really supporting the teams to feel safe when working on the retail park.

A lot of the time, people come in to view the window or complete the trail leaflets. Everyone came in to see the boy in the rubber ring. That was a good one. It does bring people in, and then many come back. It helps to bring people in and returning customers - especially people from out of town who are doing the trail with their children.
