Last month we were delighted to receive ‘Highly Commended’ at the Healthy City Design Awards 2025 for our project with Centre for London, ‘A Healthy Placemaking Approach for London Bridge: The Role of Business Improvement Districts in Promoting Health and Wellbeing‘. The award was in the Design Research for Healthy Cities category, recognising the work of the Centre for London team in exploring the potential for BIDs to impact health in their areas and identifying ways to measure this.

One of our Pledges to our members when they voted 97% in favour to continue Team London Bridge 2026-31 was that we will Focus on People and Planet. Now we would like to draw attention to the work being done by our businesses to look after the health and wellbeing of their staff and customers.
