How one BID is supporting women in the workplace
Paul Street, Project Manager for Safe and Sound, Colmore Business Improvement District #colmorebusinessimprovementdistrict provided much for us to think about at the November ’24 business meeting. He is a community safety expert coordinating highly practical projects within Colmore BID, to improve the working environment for those working in the local area, both on the street and within the businesses themselves. Focuses include safety on the street, women’s safety, the prevention of sexual harrassment at work and others. The BID brings in support from specialist groups to lead projects and these are funded by the businesses themselves.He also acts as an ambassador for the Hollie Gazzard Trust #holliegazzardtrust and promotes the use of the Hollie Guard app #hollieguard as an aid to personal safety.Paul’s commitment to the improvement of conditions for women in the workplace was abundantly clear and he was a very welcome guest. Many thanks to him and to
