Hatton Garden BID prides itself on making the area a place where people want to stay in. That is why we are in continuous dialogue with local businesses and the local authority to find out how we can make improvements to the area. The BID worked with Camden to have more bins provided in key areas around the district. This was in order to ensure our streets are kept uncluttered by rubbish and bags. However, during his daily district walkabout our project manager, Aaron, noticed that people walking up to Greville Street from Farringdon Station were regularly met with bins overflowing with rubbish. In order to combat the pile up of debris and bags our street cleaner, Luis Carlos, was...

With my second quarter since joining the Hatton Garden BID team ending, I feel that the Executive Team have built upon the foundations in which were laid in our first quarter working together. I have been able to build strong relationships with the local police team, and with our own local security team, to ensure that the streets of Hatton Garden are kept safe.

We also collaborated with the police to tackle a squatting issue in Petersham House, to which the police were successfully able to remove the squatters. I feel this is an invaluable part of the BID, as...
