<p>Since we launched the Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) Loan Fund in October
2013, 24 areas have or are receiving loans of up to £50,000 each to help set up a
BID. The 24 areas that have received or are receiving Loans are Abingdon, Altrincham,
Bermondsey, Blyth, Burnley, Central Milton Keynes, Cheltenham, Eastbourne, Hastings,
Heart of London, Hereford, Hexham, Leicester, Lifford, Litchfield, Minehead, Morpeth,
Oxted, Poole, Purley, Runcorn, Sheffield, Watford, York. We do not allocate general
funding to each BID in England or keep records of consultants working on BIDs.</p><p>The
process of conducting feasibility studies for BIDs is a matter for local areas. We
do not approve or allocate funding to those studies nor hold records of which areas
have undertaken a feasibility study.</p>
