SIX WORK PROGRAMMES 2022 > 2027

PROGRAMME 1: VOICE AND REPRESENTATION

The Fitzrovia Partnership is recognised as a representative voice of business. It serves as a focus for bringing together and allowing a two-way dialogue between its members and a range of local, London and national bodies, particularly Camden Council, Westminster City Council, The Mayor of London and Transport for London (TfL).

The BID acts as a catalyst to encourage public and private sector partners, working together to support and invest in projects that enhance Fitzrovia and ensure that the district continues to evolve and thrive.

The power of partnership extends beyond business and government. The BID actively engages with other audiences of the Fitzrovia community so that projects are selected and designed with their input, and a clear understanding of residents’ interests and those of other nearby institutions and organisations. The Fitzrovia Partnership ensures that the history and heritage of the area is respected in the approach.

The BID is a voice for business interests but any vision can only be achieved with the support of partners in the local authorities and wider community.

THE FITZROVIA PARTNERSHIP WILL:

Provide essential business-led leadership and influence. Through this advocacy and collective voice, the BID will seek to inform policy and affect change on the issues that matter most to our members and the neighbourhood.
Represent Fitzrovia businesses at local and central Government seeking business-focused support on policy matters, business rates and taxation, responding to consultations with a collective voice.
Maintain the BID’s representative voice for comment on proposed development and infrastructure changes, and local planning policy and licencing regulations to ensure they support Fitzrovia, its businesses and wider community.
Working collaboratively with key agencies and businesses to:
- Improve Air Quality
- Reduce carbon emissions
- Reduce surface transport and congestion
Engage with property owners and their occupiers, small and niche businesses to encourage an eclectic mix of uses and maintain the area’s diverse and unique offering. Ensuring that the area remains economically sustainable for all size and sector businesses. Social sustainability being at the heart of the area and its bohemian makeup.
Establish a positive working relationship with resident and other non-business communities to ensure that the BID’s business-led priorities also reflect and respond to their issues and concerns. Provide a platform for businesses to work together with representatives of the local community to achieve agreed goals that benefit all stakeholders.
