The Sutton Coldfield BID has worked and continues to work closely with Royal Sutton Coldfield Town Council who have been leading the way in the preparation of the Sutton Coldfield Town Centre Masterplan, working in partnership with stakeholders such as Gbslep Growth Hub and Birmingham City Council community organisations, and Transport for West Midlands.
Statement from BID
“Through these relationships the BID has not only represented business interests but has generated and coordinated practical and financial support for businesses, influenced development plans for the future of the town.
The collective voice of businesses working together translates into productive relationships and outcomes, and when working with other organisations and public bodies, the ability to influence more strategic issues such as the redevelopment of the town centre.
The BID plan for 2022-2027 has been developed to ensure it:

Is balanced to cover all business sectors

Seeks to create and take advantage of new opportunities

Remains relevant and has deliverable and achievable objectives

Tackles issues identified by businesses with the aim of creating a positive and more profitable trading environment”
