Drop-Ins and Networking Events
HCBID will be holding regular drop-in sessions across the county these will be geographically based, allowing us to get to know and work closely with as many members as possible. Drop-In sessions held across the county will be your opportunity to meet with your local BID CEO and BID Business Liaison Manager to discuss local projects. Keep an eye on this page and the newsletter for dates, times and locations of the Drop-Ins. Business Support Surgeries are also held by the Marches Growth Hub. Dates for both the Drop-In sessions and Support Surgeries are below. Join us at these meetings, networking events and communication opportunities.
