Championing local communities and projects
Protecting Cumbria’s most precious resource, our water, needs all of us – so we’re supporting local communities looking to improve the health of Cumbria’s water.
Our Community Fund provides vital support to projects, groups and schools that want to improve their local waterways and environment. We’re also providing learning to schools, running tours of our wastewater facilities and working with the Lake District National Park to deliver education sessions to almost 5,000 children.
