I’m joined today by Kirsten Henly.

Kirsten is the Chief Executive of Kingston First, our Business Improvement District (BID), which is dedicated to making Kingston the best it can be, for both businesses and visitors.

What’s unique about Kirsten is how her curiosity about local democracy has taken her around the country and led her to pursue a career in setting up and running BIDs.

And be sure to listen to the end, where Kirsten shares with us her vision for the business community in Kingston as we start easing out of lockdown.

So whether you’re interested in knowing more about local democracy and BIDs or would like to know more about what it takes to run a successful independent business, then I hope you enjoy this episode of the Inside Kingston™ Podcast.
