Attractive City

• Christmas Lights have been purchased for lamp columns in Foregate Street, The Cross and The Foregate. These were switched on on Thursday 18th November and we have had great feedback on them. We are now looking at lighting the trees in Broad Street as well as a new scheme in Friar Street.
• We are working with the West Mercia Probation Trust to smarten the street furniture in the city centre. So far they have worked in Pump Street, Friar Street, College Street, Bank Street, and Broad Street. They have also cleaned up the rear yard serving Mealcheapen Street and Trinity Street.
• We have undertaken a training needs survey with all BID businesses to see what the most popular training courses would be. Our first course was a certificated First Aid Training Course which was 20 pounds (a saving of 75 pounds per person) and took place in November 2011. We also ran a Customer Service and Handling Complaints course in February 2011.
• We are working with the Design Centre at the University of Worcester to look at making empty units in the city centre more aesthetically pleasing through the use of vinyl coverings.
