The centre will cater to a diverse range of businesses and initiatives, including a Blueway bike maintenance and repair project.
One million euro in funding has been allocated to transform the former Athy Christian Brothers School on Saint John's Lane into a cutting-edge centre for Circular Economy and Regenerative Business Activity.
Allocated under the Department of Rural and Community Development's Community Recognition Fund, the funds will be used to promote sustainable business practices and generate employment and training opportunities for the community.
By revitalising the historic school site, the initiative aims to establish a hub for businesses dedicated to circular economy principles.
Beyond supporting local enterprises, the centre will offer skills-based training in key areas such as recycling, repair, and waste reduction.
By selling recycled goods and providing affordable rental space for businesses, including Social Enterprises, the facility aims to address social and economic inequalities within the region.
The centre will cater to a diverse range of businesses and initiatives, including a Blueway bike maintenance and repair project.
Additionally, it will provide shared training spaces and support research into innovative sustainable technologies.
