Selwyn Responsible Business Network Welcomes New Coordinator

and is looking forward to an exciting 2024.

We have recently been privileged to make the appointment of Maree Hamilton to the position of Selwyn Responsible Network Coordinator. Maree has recently returned from Europe and brings extensive experience from working on large business sustainability projects there. Maree has already begun engaging with local businesses and is looking forward to continued dialogue with the business community regarding their environmental and community initiatives.

The Selwyn Responsible Business Network aims to provide supportive contact with Selwyn’s businesses. Through discussion, sharing of best practices, initiatives and experiences we can enhance environmental sustainability and community resilience. As public awareness of these issues continues to grow we look forward to informing people about the excellent work being done by our local businesses.

2024 is a Selwyn Responsible Business Awards Year and we look forward to celebrating the endeavors of local organisations in environmental stewardship and community engagement.

These awards are held every two years. In 2022 the awards showcased around 80 enterprises.

“The Awards process is very straightforward with a visit and a chat rather than any form filling” explains Maree. “We hope many businesses will take the opportunity to share their achievements and be recognised for their sustainability commitments.”

The network is excited to collaborate and celebrate with Selwyn’s business community on building a more sustainable, resilient future.

To learn more about the Selwyn Responsible Business Network or the 2024 Awards contact Maree Hamilton.

Responsible Business in Selwyn: Creating a resilient community

Free

About this event

The last two years have been challenging for many, and we wish to provide a friendly and comfortable space to discuss how we can become more connected, more resilient, and more in tune with what our community and environment needs to thrive.

We’ll explore what community resilience could look like in Selwyn / Waikirikiri, and how local businesses can contribute to these changes. A range of speakers will give short presentations on different issues including addressing environmental change, shifting towards regenerative agriculture, bringing biodiversity back, reducing building waste, and improving our education system.

There will be time for questions after each presentation, with a panel discussion at the end and refreshments throughout!

This event is being run by the Responsible Business Network with support from the Selwyn District Council, tickets are limited, subject to Level 2 restrictions. Any enquiries please contact Siana Fitzjohn at rbacoordinator@gmail.com

We hope to see you there!
