Welcome to Cumberland

Cumberland Council will be carrying out essential carriageway patching works on Priory Drive in Cleator Moor.

Changes to the way customers pay for parking at Workington’s multi-storey car park will be introduced soon. The site will be moving away from the pay-on-exit barrier system from Tuesday 2 June, with customers asked to pay on arrival, in line with other council-run car parks.

Cumberland Council has published its Public Health Annual Report 2026, highlighting stark inequalities in men’s health — and calling for a wider conversation about masculinity and its impact on health, relationships and communities.
