With shared ambitions for regional growth, the University of Cumbria and Enterprising Cumbria are shining a spotlight on the county’s new economic strategy.

Cumbria is set to receive its very own community flag, and residents from across the county are invited to unleash their creativity and contribute to its design. 

On 11 March, the University of Cumbria hosted an insightful day bringing together its senior leaders along with several key guests from the local community. Among the attendees were local councillors, senior leads from Team Barrow, and colleagues from BAE Systems. Together, they came to help shape the university’s approach to its integration into the Barrow area.
