Communications play a vital role in the BID’s work, creating a network between businesses, promoting the initiatives being undertaken by the BID, and elevating the area as a destination for leisure and business.
We will be raising awareness of the world-class activity in the area, through our e-newsletter, website and social media. The BID also takes part in London-wide events, such as Pride, the London Festival of Architecture, West End LIVE, which showcases the highlights from London’s top theatre shows… and most people’s favourite season, Christmas, will be back in all it’s glory, with lights along the Strand. Keep an eye out for more activity throughout the year.
The #NorthbankTogether campaign will bring the area together in celebrating the range of major events and smaller activities this summer, all ready to be discovered. Northbank businesses can get involved and find out more, simply by contacting the BID office, or downloading the campaign brief here.
Summer events

Next one due out June 2019.
