Access the recording & slides from our webinar on the Cumbria Devolution Consultation

Below you’ll find a recording of our recent webinar on the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government’s (MHCLG) devo consultation, held in partnership with Cumbria Tourism and the CBI. The webinar featured a presentation from Joshua Walker of MHCLG covering devolution and how the consultation works, the slides for which can be accessed here.

We’d encourage everyone to participate in the consultation which is open until 13th April 2025. The easiest way to submit a representation for this consultation is online at this link. Please note that emails will not be counted as a consultation response.

Cumbria Chamber MD, Suzanne Caldwell, said: “Whatever your views more widely, it’s abundantly clear to me that devolution is the only way to go currently if we want to build the future for Cumbria that I know we’re all keen to. If you’d like any more information on devo or a chat with me about it then please do get in touch via suzanne@cumbriachamber.co.uk.
