Welcome to Cumberland

Residents and visitors gathered in Carlisle city centre on Saturday (27 June) to mark Armed Forces Day, with a well-attended event celebrating the contribution of the UK’s Armed Forces – past, present and future.

The opportunity to have a say on Carlisle’s long-term future is available from today (Monday 29 June).

Youth co-researchers aged 12-17 years will be working alongside peer youth co-researchers aged 18-24 years to generate new insight into the lives, needs, and aspirations of children and young people in Cumberland to co-produce a new Youth Strategy that places their lived experiences at its heart.
