News From BID

Tavistock BID hosted a very varied programme of events for the Winter Festival, attracting many visitors to Tavistock, and a successful Dickensian Evening saw improved sales for many BID levy payers. BID is now working on planning an exciting and engaging series of events throughout the first part of 2019.

In February half-term, the BID team is organising craft workshops and a ‘Games on the Square’ day. In March, we intend to paint the town in a blaze of colour! Local businesses, in conjunction with local primary schools, will create bright and wonderful displays, which will be revealed in the windows of many local businesses on Saturday 16^thMarch. The following Saturday will see the BID launch a brand new and egg-citing town hunt for adults and children from 23^rdMarch to 22^ndApril. As well as all this, Tavistock BID is supporting our community gardeners in their Britain in Bloom entry, with judging in early July. We are also working hard to promote our beautiful town by putting together a series of leaflets for the Visitor Information Centre on things to do in Tavistock, improving the Visit-Tavistock website, looking into new promotional ideas for the town’s businesses and increasing coach visitors with new itineraries.
