Help Shape the Future of Marble Arch BID

Over the past nine years, Marble Arch BID has played a crucial role in improving the district, including enhancing security, bringing forward junction schemes, adding green infrastructure, advocating for businesses and running community initiatives and events. As we prepare for our third five-year term, we want to hear from Marble Arch BID members, as well as residents, business owners and employees in Marble Arch. Your feedback will help us refine our services to meet the evolving needs of the area.

You can share your views by completing our online survey (open to everyone), or if you are a Marble Arch BID member, by joining one of our themed workshops or arranging a one-to-one meeting with the BID team. Scroll down to find out more about how you can get involved.
