Environment Thematic Partnership
The newly formed Environment Thematic Partnership is one of the key forums through which the priorities and targets of Cumbria's Local Area Agreement have been developed and agreed.
The Partnership brings together the previously named Planning, Transport and Housing; Environment and Heritage and the Waste and Streetscene Thematic Partnerships.
The Chair of the Partnership is Marie Fallon, Corporate Director - Environment, Cumbria County Council. The Partnership is responsible for identifying and tackling under and over performance and for recommending use of funds to support the delivery of the priorities identified in the Agreement.
The operation of the Thematic Partnerships is overseen by the Cumbria Thematic Partnership and LSP Joint Chairs Group. To find out more about the Thematic Partnership and the Cumbria Thematic Partnership and LSP Joint Chairs group follow the link below.
