About Us

Felixstowe BID is a not-for-profit organisation that is funded by a mandatory levy on businesses in a defined zone covering the seafront and town centre. It will invest the levy money on projects that enhance the trading environment, increase footfall, dwell and spend, and support the members of Felixstowe BID. Felixstowe BID was established in April 2021 after a ballot of business owners returned a majority vote in favour of the initiative.

BIDs are funded and controlled by the businesses that pay for them and deliver projects over and above services already funded by the local authorities. This HR guidance site is an example of one such project. Felixstowe BID has a board of directors that represents every sector of the town's economy, is geographically well-dispersed across the BID zone and meets quarterly. A smaller executive management group meets weekly, and a manager is responsible for the day-to-day running of the company.

We know how many smaller businesses can struggle with HR, and we therefore provide our members with access to important HR and employment law information via the HR guidance site, YourHR.guide.

YourHR.guide gives extensive guidance on all the common day to day HR situations that arise. It also allows you to put in place all the HR documentation you may need to protect your business, ensure compliance, and provide flexibility. 

All our Members are offered FREE Regular Membership to YourHR.guide. This gives access to over 50 templates and 60 pages of guidance. It also keeps you up to date with changes in HR and employment law (in the UK) via regular notifications.

For those who want to access more content, there is an option to subscribe to Premium Membership for just £19.99 per month + vat. This will give you access to over 250 templates, including contracts of employment, HR policies, letters and forms.

We hope you find the information, guidance and ongoing updates and notification of value.
