In the current economic climate, it is critical for local businesses to pull together to promote and enhance Canterbury as an attractive place to live and visit, as it is unrealistic to expect the local council to do it for us. The BID status would give businesses a coherent voice and more influence as the funds raised would support the services we provide and the goods we sell. We can’t expect others to do it for us, but together we can do it.
