Circular Hepburn - Business Toolkit

Having teamed up with Circular Economy experts Good Human in 2023 to develop a suite of Circular Economy resources for local businesses, Council is now excited to present the Circular Hepburn Toolkit for Businesses and Beyond. The toolkit consists of: an introductory booklet featuring local case studies; a set of Circular Economy Strategy Cards; and this webpage, which will be updated with news and fresh case studies as the Hepburn Shire Circular Economy community of practice grows and develops (see the bottom of this page).  

If you run or represent a business in Hepburn Shire we’d love your engagement. Click on the links below to trial the toolkit, let us know your thoughts in the “Have your say” section below, and join us in building a Circular Economy community of practice in Hepburn:
