The Active in Cumbria site, put together by the Sport for Health Manager at West Cumbria Council for Voluntary Service, provides information on a wide range of opportunities for physical activity and sport across the whole of Cumbria. It is an interactive site that has information on local events, local training, funding sources, volunteering opportunities and local physical activity projects.
There is a directory of clubs, facilities and contacts for sporting activity that is searchable by town and kind of activity.
