Our Board

Norwich BID is governed and guided by a board over 30 members, responsible for representing the interests of levy payers. Chaired by Tessa Haskey (Howes Percival), the board is a collection of the city’s leaders and influencers from across key business sectors.

The board work on behalf of all businesses to implement ideas that are important for the future prosperity of Norwich. Their work is divided into three key work strands: VisitNorwich, The Norwich Experience and Invest Business.

The board meets monthly, and copies of board minutes are available upon request, for Norwich BID levy payers: sonia.bright@norwichbid.co.uk.
