New manager of Business Improvement District

The new manager of the Spalding Business Improvement District Board has been announced.

Sarah Fletcher, a former chief executive of HealthWatch Lincolnshire, will start her new role as a district manager on June 2.

Her duties will include implementing the BID plans which will see organising events, and being a point of contact.

Sarah has lived and worked in the area all her life and was at school in Spalding.

Her roles in the private and public sectors includes ten years at the health watchdog.

“My work at HealthWatch really helped me to recognise that ‘learning through listening’ is important. So, as part of my learning, I am keen to meet up with and hear from as many people as possible, including levy payers, local residents and stakeholders to help shape delivery of the BID business plan.

“I look forward to working closely with and supporting the BID Board of Directors who already have impressed me as a very dedicated group of people focused on putting Spalding on the map, despite them all being really busy running their own businesses outside of BID”.

The board has already announced an £11,000 investment in hanging baskets for the town.

The board is also looking for a workspace Sarah can use which has access for the public.
