Improving the community

What would make a difference to where you live?

Would it be removing graffiti, cleaning up green spaces, having more to do for young people? The ‘Together we can’ project is trying to make that difference. The project involves many organisations that provide services (including your local councils, Cumbria Fire & Rescue Service, the NHS, the Police and community and voluntary organisations) working together with local people to make a positive difference in local areas across Cumbria. Six areas are being targeted in the first wave of ‘Together we can’ projects. These are:

Cleator Moor  

Ulverston  

Maryport

Vickerstown  

Harraby  

Appleby

These areas will get an intensive one or two week ‘top up’ from the services involved following discussion with local people about what needs to be done. You can help us decide where the next ‘Together we can’ projects take place by getting in touch and telling us about where you live.
