Better

To build a healthy, sustainable community, we have and will provide services to the local businesses, charities and people. These will serve them to better understand each other and enable everyone involved to build mutually beneficial, long-term partnerships.

Greener

Greening is at the heart of Vauxhall One’s ambition to tackle climate change and create a sustainable urban setting for people to enjoy.

Since the BID was formed, we have delivered several strategic greening projects, including a green wall, a clean air garden and several small pocket gardens.

These have enriched Vauxhall’s sense of place, made the area more attractive for pedestrians and cyclists, improved air quality and enhanced biodiversity.

Safer

Since the BID’s inception, safety has been consistently named as a top priority for member businesses.

In Vauxhall One’s first two terms, BID-funded additional police presence resulted in a 15% drop in crime. This work has now given way to more intelligence-led interventions, including nine CCTV cameras.

Vauxhall Security Offices patrol the area at prime times, deterring antisocial behaviour and providing an extra layer of late-night security at weekends.
