A unique opportunity for Colwyn Businesses

Businesses attending the launch of the Colwyn BID proposal and Business plan at Parc Eirias last week heard from Chris Jackson, Interim Chair of the Colwyn BID Steering Group how the plan provides an exciting opportunity for businesses to influence key issues in the area.

Chris Jackson said ‘this is a unique area and a unique opportunity. The projects outlined in the BID Proposal have been identified by businesses in the area as having the potential to making a real difference to their business. I encourage everyone to take advantage of this to Vote Yes in the BID Ballot.’

Rhos on Sea, Old Colwyn, Colwyn Bay and Mochdre

‘The fact that all four areas are represented in this BID makes it unique in the UK’ said Ian Ferguson ofbid-map500pixels pfbb UK, BID Consultants for the Colwyn BID.

Maggie Bradley of Red 16 Café at Rhos-on-Sea and Chair of the Rhos-on-Sea Traders Association said, ‘I am so excited by the BID. It will help us improve the facilities for visitors to Rhos and create stronger links to the other areas which means that visitors will stay longer and spend more!’

The BID Proposal has specific projects for each of the four areas as well as each area benefiting from larger shared projects such as signage and parking.
