Kendal BID has supported projects that improve safety within the public realm. This has included projects like installing cctv and working with other safety organisation such as Bar Watch.

Kendal BID is keen to reduce the  environmental impact of Kendal's businesses. We are therefore offering grants of up to £1000 for projects that will reduce a businesses carbon footprint. There is no restriction on what the grant can be used for as long as it improves the businesses enviromental footprint.

Kendal BID supports many of Kendal's events and festivals. For the BID to support an event or festival it needs to bring people to Kendal and increase footfall within the BID area
