Promote your business in Luton on Sunday

We are promoting town centre businesses in Luton this year and funding a series of features in the town's weekly newspaper, Luton on Sunday. 

Our first feature will focus on places to go, things to do and presents to buy this Easter. This is your opportunity to promote your business (at no cost to your business) so if you would like to be included in our Easter round up please get in touch by 12noon this Wednesday, 9th March.

To be included please email around 100 words about your business and a jpeg photo to promotions@lutonbid.org.

Clean for the Queen
 
Check out our photos from last week's Clean for the Queen day, part of a national initiative to clear up Britain in time for the Queen's 90th birthday. 

Thank you to all the volunteers from local businesses who joined the clean- up event, organised by the council and supported by Luton BID.

Moving forwards, the council are planning an Open Your Eyes clean-up programme for 2016, which the BID will support. See our Facebook album HERE.
