The BMA is also designing and rolling out a Buy Local Campaign for Mount Alexander Shire in the next few months.

Together we will help Harcourt Rise!
The scale of loss is heartbreaking, and my thoughts are with everyone in the Harcourt community as they begin the long road to recovery. BMA is committed to working with Harcourt businesses and are advocating government to rebuild the Cool Stores and support a BUY LOCAL campaign. Please let us know any assistance you need and we will try to support you and connect you with the appropriate services.
