Kidderminster BID welcomes new manager, Alexandra Powell

The local Business Improvement District (BID) has announced the appointment of a new BID Manager today (Tuesday 10 March).

Alexandra Powell, who lives in Kidderminster, has taken on the role which will see her join the company on 16 March 2020.

Alexandra brings a wealth of experience having previously worked as a Neighbourhood Manager. She established a Neighbourhood Management Board which was the catalyst for improvements to the locality.

She will start at an exciting time for investment into the town and wants to use her strong background in project management and working with business communities to operate the BID.

Alexandra said: “I am delighted to be given the opportunity to deliver Kidderminster BID’s proposals.

“As a local resident, I am hugely passionate about engaging with local businesses and helping them have a say in how the town can be improved. Investment in the town centre has already had an enormous impact and I am looking forward to building on the successes already achieved.”

Rosalyn Darby, Kidderminster BID chairperson, added: “We are thrilled that Alexandra has accepted the position. The board is looking forward to working alongside her for the foreseeable future on the projects highlighted by the levy payers in consultation.”

Councillor Fran Oborski, Wyre Forest District Council’s Cabinet Member for Economic Regeneration, Planning and Capital Investments, said: “Following the successful BID outcome last year, we are delighted a BID manager has now been appointed to move it forward.

“With a number of new developments in and around the town centre in the pipeline, it is an exciting time to launch the BID and appoint a manager to deliver its programme.

“We are confident with the involvement of the local businesses, the BID will help make Kidderminster a vibrant place for shoppers and visitors, as well as a place where businesses can thrive.”

The BID manager’s role involves working with local businesses in the BID area to deliver agreed projects and services. The BID company is required to keep the businesses that pay the BID levy and all stakeholders informed of current progress and developments.

Alexandra will provide support to the BID Board, its database management, ballot operations and the implementation of a process driven environment.

The other day we asked which streets you wanted us to focus on, and you answered loud and clear! "Worcester Street" came out on top, so today the BID team were out there giving it some much-needed care and attention. 💙 So far on Worcester Street, we’ve de-weeded the pavements, cleared moss, sharpened up the brickwork, and given the whole street a proper tidy-up. It’s been great working alongside local businesses and having so many people stop for a chat and share their thanks, your support really keeps the momentum going. Day by day, we’re making progress together and helping our town centre look its best. 🌿 The Bear and Wolf Geek Retreat Kidderminster Tattoo at Carlton House #Kidderminster #worcestershire #love #support #community #business #town #nature #local #cleaning #freshstart

This afternoon, our Kidderminster BID team joined Wyre Forest Police for joint patrols around the town centre 💙 We checked in with local businesses, had some fantastic chats with owners and residents, and carried out hotspot policing at 11 key locations with additional officers. Any issues were addressed quickly and collaboratively, including 1 arrest for public order, 1 referral for a vulnerable adult, and PSPO patrols, helping to keep Kidderminster safe and welcoming. This kind of partnership shows the real difference we can make when BID, police, businesses, and residents work together. #Kidderminster #Worcestershire #security #safety #town #local #community #love #business #support

Chris & Ricky have been hard at work around town this week, you might have spotted them in their bright blue tops, out cleaning our streets and getting stuck into gardening work 💙 They’ve been busy over at Bromsgrove Street Car Park, de-weeding, tidying the brickwork, and clearing around the bollards to give the whole area a fresher look. They also cut back the bushes on New Road and Market Street, making the footpaths wider, safer, and more welcoming for everyone. 🌿 It’s been wonderful to see the support this week, from waves and chats to tea and coffee from Co-op Funeral Directors. We’re passionate about what we do, and it’s great to know the difference is being noticed. 💙 #Kidderminster #Worcestershire #local #nature #love #family #community #gardening #business #litter #growth #town
