The IoD in Cumbria has approximately 150 members. In this county, we have a vast and awkward geographical area to cover. In order for us to do this effectively and do the best in representing and supporting the business community here, we need the support of our members. This may be through attending IoD Cumbria events, or through joining our committee. In addition to our own events, you may find IoD Scotland and IoD Lancashire's events of interest for those in the north and south of the county.
If you wish to get more involved you can contact the North West office on 0161 247 7634 or at Andrea Lowe.
We are always delighted to hear from anyone interested in joining our Committee.
