Upcoming Events
What does Devolution in Cumbria mean for your organisation?
The Government has confirmed that Cumbria is in its priority programme of areas for devolution.
But what might devolution mean in practice?
Cumbria CVS and Cumbria Third Sector Network are hosting an online event where you’ll be able to learn more.
Andrew Seekings, Chief Executive Officer, Cumberland Council & Alison Hatcher, Assistant Chief Executive, Westmorland and Furness Council will give a presentation covering:
Carlisle Rural Link and Think: Isolation and Loneliness
A networking and collaborative event aimed at link workers (social prescribers, care-coordinators, carer support coordinators, health and wellbeing coaches for example) and VCFSE (Voluntary, Community, Faith and Social Enterprise) organisations in the Carlisle Rural/Brampton and Longtown area.
The event will be hosted at Heathlands by the Laurie Brewis Trust and Cumbria CVS, with opportunities to look round the fantastic facilities and day services at Heathlands. Attendees will learn more about the activities and services available in the area, with a focus on those which tackle loneliness and isolation.
