BID NEWS
DISC Scheme The DISC scheme has been introduced to BID levy payers in May 2022 in order to share intelligence, manage banning schemes efficiently, enhance security awareness, increase engagement levels, communicate with members and provide a link to Police and other DISC users. Across the UK, DISC for BIDs enables Business Improvement Districts to reduce the impact of, low-level crime and anti-social behaviour on their levy payers’ businesses. The DISC Scheme is free to BID members.
Benefits of the DISC Scheme:
• In partnership with local police
The DISC automated eNewsletter is a uniquely effective and economical way to keep levy-payers regularly and fully informed about BIDsponsored events, emphasizing the benefits that BID brings to its levy-payers: attracting more visitors, driving footfall and helping them build their businesses.
With DISC for BIDs, Business Improvement Districts benefit from all the functions of Disc for Watch Groups, as well as other powerful DISC functions.
An additional feature of Disc for BIDs is its powerful ‘Public Realm’ reporting system. BIDs can configure the system to handle the public realm issues that concern their levy-payers most.
• Real time alerts • Report crimes and antisocial behaviour • Regular newsletters and updates
