"Sheffield BID is delighted to have secured a successful ballot for a third term, taking us through to 2031. More than a decade after the original BID was established, this new mandate reflects the continued resilience and ingenuity of our city centre businesses, who have faced significant economic and environmental pressures with remarkable adaptability.

"Our partnership-led governance model remains fundamental to how we operate. Working closely with Sheffield City Council, South Yorkshire Police and a wide network of stakeholders, we ensure that businesses retain a strong and equal voice in shaping the future of the city centre.

"As we prepare for the third term, our focus remains firmly on delivery and momentum. We continue to champion the diversity of our business community, attract visitors, increase dwell time and stimulate local economic activity. Alongside this, we remain committed to advocating for investment and supporting businesses in retaining and developing the talent they need to thrive.

"With a fresh mandate and a clear vision for 2026–2031, Sheffield BID is ready to build on strong foundations and lead a bold new chapter for the city centre. We are committed to innovation and experimental projects that meet the evolving needs of our city centre - ensuring it remains vibrant, resilient, and welcoming for all."

Diane Jarvis, Chief Executive Officer
