Connecting Kensington
Opportunity Kensington is a new Business Improvement District (BID) formalised in April 2022 to deliver a programme of services and initiatives that support and improve the area centred around Kensington High Street.
In 2021, representatives from a variety of sectors and organisations in Kensington, large and small, informed the development of a proposal to establish Opportunity Kensington to improve the area centred around Kensington High Street.
In February 2022, eligible businesses were invited to vote in a ballot. 88% of voting businesses were in favour of establishing Opportunity Kensington, representing 98% of the rateable value of voting businesses.
In April 2022, Opportunity Kensington was formalised to deliver a programme of services and initiatives for the next five years.
Between 2022 and 2027, Opportunity Kensington will secure at least £5 million of investment into the local area to benefit the whole community – businesses, residents, employees and visitors.
In partnership with a host of local businesses, Opportunity Kensington brings you Token; a local loyalty scheme designed exclusively for those who work, live or do business in Kensington.
