The community and the environment
Businesses
Local businesses are the body of our Borough and ensure that our residents have employment, products and recreation. Businesses support the local economy and make our town centres what they are today. They play a key role in transitioning to an environmental and a biodiverse borough.
Local businesses have the opportunity to transition their businesses to more efficient energy use, environmental procurement and provide low impact products to save money and contribute to a better future.
Without businesses in this movement, residents wouldn't have environment products, the energy and waste systems would be inefficient, and we wouldn't be able to support a biodiverse Borough.
To ensure that local businesses are aware of the problems we face today we have developed our webpages to include more information about the environment which you may have already seen.
Please see the next sections to learn more about how you, as a business can make an impact towards our goals of becoming an environmental borough.
