Social Value case studies

Cumberland Council is committed to ensuring that the money we spend through procurement delivers wider benefits for our communities.

Our Social Value Menu sets out the priorities that guide this work. These priorities are to support local people, strengthen the economy, protect the environment and improve overall wellbeing. 

Suppliers play an essential role in achieving these outcomes, reporting on the activities and results they deliver through their contracts.

Our collated case studies show how this approach is making a difference across Cumberland by creating jobs, developing skills, supporting communities and contributing to environmental improvements.
