THINGS TO CONSIDER

We will prioritise applications that align with our ENHANCE or PROMOTE themes in our business plan. Anyone applying for this funding is encouraged to consider how their event or initiative will align with our themes.

Our four themes include:

• Enhancing – Delivering projects that attract investment, and talent, create a cleaner, greener, and more attractive city centre, bringing residents, employees, and visitors back into the heart of our city.
• Promoting – A collaborative approach to delivering innovative campaigns, events, activations, and communications to promote Bristol. Celebrating everything that makes Bristol a special place to work, study and live.
• Protecting- Investing to reduce, challenge and raise awareness on crime and anti-social behaviour to protect city centre businesses, visitors, and residents both day and at night.
• Supporting – Acting as a single point of contact to represent levy payers, leverage investment, influence strategy and support the business community.

We are dedicated to supporting projects that align with our goals and values. As such, we will prioritise applications that promote diversity and equality, support the local economy through increased footfall and spend in the city centre, and promote sustainability and responsible procurement.
