Copeland is buzzing about new wildlife project

Published: 25/09/2019

WORK will begin on an exciting project to protect and reintroduce pollinators in Copeland this week.

Volunteers are urged to take part in bulb planting sessions across Whitehaven and Distington as part of the £1.6 million ‘Get Cumbria Buzzing’ project which aims to tackle a decline in bees and other pollinators.

Copeland Council, a partner in the three-year project, has received £60,000 to create havens for insects spanning almost 10,000 square meters.

Whitehaven pubs sign up to Best Bar None

Published: 25/09/2019

SEVEN licensed premises in Whitehaven have applied for a prestigious national accreditation.

The premises have signed up to be part of Best Bar None Whitehaven – a scheme aimed at increasing safety and improving standards – and are in the process of being assessed.

If they successfully pass their assessment, the businesses will receive the significant Best Bar None status and the improved reputation, footfall and customer confidence it brings. They will also be eligible for an awards ceremony held in Carlisle in November.
