OUR
PRIORITIES

We are working to create a city we can all be proud of. Our priorities ensure our goals are met and we are accountable for the promises we make.

These three priorities represent our driving force to build a safe, clean & attractive environment, to ensure our city centre business voices are heard at the highest levels, and to raise Sunderland’s profile regionally and nationally.

CITY
VOICE

We will provide a robust and collective voice for our businesses at the highest level.

As a BID, we’ve gained the authority to take our seat at the top table of decision makers, and make sure your voice is heard loud and clear at the very highest level as our influence continues to grow, locally, regionally and nationally.
