About us

Who we are

Our motto is ‘Inspiring Collective Development’

The aim when implementing the association was to have a local business directory hosted on our own dedicated website, initially this would be for all paid up members only but in the future we hope to have enough members to be able to become funded by the council via a targeted rates levy on all property owners  as a ‘Business Improvement District’ (BID).

All members will have their say on what they believe is good for our area.  To this end we will hold regular networking events for local businesses to share ideas that would benefit the whole business community and to be kept up-to-date on issues that affect our area in general, i.e., transport, security, etc.

What we do?

  • Powerful platform created just for you…to have your
    say on matters you deem most important
