Scope and purpose of the Industrial Strategy 1.1 The Government produced its national Industrial Strategy in November 2017, which outlined plans for an economy that “boosts productivity and earning power throughout the UK”. In Cumbria we interpret this as ‘inclusive growth’, making sure that our people and places prosper alongside our businesses and economy. 1.2 The strategy sets out five foundations of productivity, described as “the essential attributes of every successful economy”, which are: • Ideas: the world’s most innovative economy • People: good jobs and greater earning power for all • Infrastructure: a major upgrade to the UK’s infrastructure • Business environment: the best place to start and grow a business • Places: prosperous communities across the UK. 1.3 The Industrial Strategy also sets out four Grand Challenges which are: • Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the data economy: to put the UK at the forefront of the artificial intelligence and data revolution • Clean growth: to maximise the advantages for UK industry from the global shift to clean growth • Future of mobility: to become a world leader in the way people, goods and services move • Ageing society: to harness the power of innovation to help meet the needs of an ageing society. 3 CUMBRIA LOCAL ENTERPRISE PARTNERSHIP DEVELOPING A LOCAL INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY FOR CUMBRIA 1 1.4 The Industrial Strategy also made it clear that Local Industrial Strategies are a key mechanism to take forward the national Industrial Strategy, stating that Local Industrial Strategies (LIS) will: • Be developed locally and agreed with government • Be long-term, based on clear evidence, and aligned to the national Industrial Strategy • Identify local strengths and challenges, future opportunities and the action needed to boost productivity, earning power and competitiveness • Help identify priorities to improve skills, increase innovation and enhance infrastructure and business growth, which will guide the use of local funding streams and any spending from national schemes. What are we doing in Cumbria? 1.5 Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership (CLEP) is one of 38 LEPs who are business-led partnerships between the private and public sector, with responsibility for steering growth strategically in local communities and driving inclusive growth, increasing prosperity and improving productivity. 1.6 CLEP has worked with all of our partners to develop Cumbria’s LIS in response to the national Industrial Strategy. The timing was right to do this as our first Strategic Economic Plan was launched in 2014, over five years ago. A major review was needed given that much has changed during that time. The progress CLEP and partners have made in implementing the SEP is summarised below. 1.7 The SEP has been underpinned by a number of important accompanying documents: the Skills Investment Plan, the Infrastructure Plan and the Rural and Visitor Economy Growth Plan. These are all being re-aligned with the LIS, with the recently completed Energy Plan already framed around the five drivers of productivity and the clean growth Grand Challenge. 1.8 The LIS has been produced following extensive consultation and feedback from June 2018 to March 2019 which have helped shape the strategy. This LIS sets out the vision for Cumbria, five strategic objectives for the county with associated targets, and a number of supporting priorities. It is not however an action plan or business plan for specific activity by the LEP and its partners. A supporting action plan and work programmes are being developed to ensure that the ambition, strategic objectives and priorities are delivered. 4 CUMBRIA LOCAL ENTERPRISE PARTNERSHIP DEVELOPING A LOCAL INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY FOR CUMBRIA 1 Table 1.1: Progress in our 2014 Strategic Economic Plan areas Element Progress supported by Cumbria LEP and our partners Key focus/ • Launch of Enterprise Zone at Kingmoor Park, Carlisle with around 70 four prongs: hectares of development land Advanced • Development of National Centre for Nuclear Skills (Lakes College) manufacturing • Advanced Manufacturing and Technology Centre –Furness College and growth/ at Carlisle College Nuclear • Successful bid for World Heritage Site status for Lake District and energy excellence/ • Significant growth in visitor numbers and spend in Cumbria and investment Vibrant rural in better quality hotel and other accommodation and visitor • Investment in improved cultural facilities in Windermere, Grasmere, Kendal economy/ and Whitehaven Strategic • Investment in Cockermouth to improve flood defences for key advanced connectivity manufacturing firms of the M6 • Housing and employment sites unlocked along the M6 corridor Corridor • Successful bid for a Food Enterprise Zone around Penrith, Appleby, Alston and Kirkby Stephen Four economic • Successful roll-out of Connecting Cumbria super-fast broadband drivers: • Development of the Cumbria Growth Hub Business • Development of the Rural Growth Network Support, Skills Development; • Road improvements to the A590 Infrastructure • £2m Port of Workington access bridge Improvements; • Carlisle Airport £15 million invested by the public and private sector to and enable airport to open for commercial services in 2019 Environmental • Industrial estate access improvement at Gillwilly (Penrith) and Durranhill Sustainability (Carlisle) • £7m investment in Barrow Waterfront Business Park to open up the site for businesses central road access to the Marina Village for housing / mixed use development • Station hubs at Maryport and Workington • Establishment of the Eco-innovation Hub 5 CUMBRIA LOCAL ENTERPRISE PARTNERSHIP DEVELOPING A LOCAL INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY FOR CUMBRIA 1 How the LIS links to other strategies 1.9 The LIS provides Cumbria’s contribution to the national Industrial Strategy, outlining our place in delivering the things

  • (Lancashire North of the Sands), No Religious House Arose In
    AN INTRODUCTION TO THE RELIGIOUS HOUSES OF CUMBRIA In Furness, (Lancashire north of the sands), no religious house arose in the poor and remote districts which in the twelfth century became the county of Lancaster, until nearly thirty years after the Norman Conquest. Of the three Cistercian houses Furness was the earliest, having been founded at Tulketh near Preston in 1124, and removed to Furness in 1127; There were two houses of Austin Canons; the priory of Conishead was founded (at first as a hospital) before 1181, the priory of Cartmel about 1190. Furness and Cartmel, exercised feudal lordship over wide tracts of country. Furness naturally resented the foundation of Conishead so close to itself, and on land under its own lordship, but the quarrel was soon composed. In Cumberland, within a comparatively small area, six monastic foundations carried on their work with varying success for almost four centuries. Four of these houses were close to the border, and suffered much during the long period of hostility between the two kingdoms. The priories of Carlisle and Lanercost, separated only by some 10 miles, were of the Augustinian order; the abbeys of Holmcultram and Calder, between which there seems to have been little communication, were of the Cistercian; and the priories of Wetheral and St. Bees were cells of the great Benedictine abbey of St. Mary, York Detailed accounts of all the monastic houses in the former counties of Cumberland and Lancashire appeared in the introductory volumes of the original Victoria County Histories of the two counties, published in 1905 and 1908 respectively.

  • The Outdoor Partnership Cumbria: Needs, Challenges and Opportunities
    The Outdoor Partnership Cumbria: Needs, challenges and opportunities Preliminary report of research conducted with stakeholder and user groups July 2020 David Harvey 1 Executive Summary The Outdoor Partnership in Cumbria offers an opportunity to increase participation in outdoor activity. The research showed that there is a strong belief amongst providers, teachers, commissioners and stakeholders in the importance and value of time and outdoor and adventurous activities in the natural environment for mental and physical health, personal development and broadening horizons. Young people from Copeland who were surveyed also expressed an interest in taking part in outdoor activities. Challenges The research unearthed the following societal barriers, which programmes aiming to increase participation should consider: • Attitudes to physical activity and historical/cultural non participation in outdoor activity • A non-outdoor mindset • Limited public transport • Poverty and disposable income • Lack of awareness of opportunities • Lack of joined up approach to delivery • Limited existing sector capacity to deliver increased provision The development of a local economy that is less reliant on Sellafield is a priority for Copeland Borough Council. Related to this, it is widely believed that young people will need to develop the skills to be able to deal with the challenges associated with an uncertain world of work. Wider research shows that regular participation in outdoor activities can: • lead to greater awareness of self, others and the environment
