Charity Highlights
Litter Pick
The BID has purchased litter picking equipment that is available to all businesses who wish to give back to the estate. Get in touch if you want to hold or support a litter pick and we will provide all the equipment you will need - and do a call out for volunteers if that proves helpful. Get in touch.
Ride for Hope
Brackmills BID supports an annual cycle ride, called Ride4Hope, which is in aid of The Hope Centre, a Northamptonshire charity which strives to relieve poverty and tackle the causes of homelessness. Companies from across the estate take part and support the event, raising thousands of pounds thanks to their pedal power.
Brackmills Charities
The Hope Centre in Northampton is a progressive anti-poverty charity that works to improve the lives of anyone affected by poverty - especially homelessness - through services, training, campaigning and advocacy. Each year the charity runs a fundraising event challenging people raise money by sleeping outside for a night. Brackmills BID CEO, Sara Homer, also a trustee for the charity, has done this for many consecutive years.
Environmental Action
One of the BID's objectives is to 'provide a smart, tidy and safe environment and focus on sustainability, exploring options for electric vehicle charging points – supporting businesses on their low carbon journeys.'
