THE BOROUGH of Copeland is to be celebrated in an exhibition at The Beacon Museum.
The event, which runs from March 10 - 26, looks back at Copeland council’s 49 years, and marks the transition to Cumberland Council on April 1.
Celebrating Copeland includes video interviews with staff, leaders and councillors, and has memorabilia, photographs and other artefacts.
Copeland Mayor, Mike Starkie, said: “As we approach a new era in local government, we thought it right to reflect upon all the achievements and challenges of the last half century.
