COPELAND Council is looking forward to next week's Residents' Week, designed to help businesses bounce back after the pandemic.
Copeland's portfolio holder for tourism, Coun Steve Morgan, said: "This initiative should encourage people to get out on to their high streets and interact with local businesses. Everyone who spends £10 with a participating business is entered into a prize draw. Businesses have donated all kinds of amazing gifts and experiences.
"If there are any businesses who haven't yet signed up, I'd urge them to do so."
