Cumbria Business Environment Network

Welcome To The Cumbria Business Environment Network


We are all very aware of our responsibilities to the environment that we live and work in.

 
AT CBEN we deliver two projects to businesses in Cumbria:Hands
 

  • the ENWORKS regional Resource Efficiency project that offers free environmental support to businesses, helping you to identify resource and cost savings.
  • the CBEN Awards scheme that offers a staged approach to implementing an Environmental Management System and will help you to promote your good environmental practices to your clients.

We can also advise you on Corporate Responsibility:  looking at the relationships that your business has with the local community, improving Biodiversity on your site, Climate Change Risk, Transport Planning,  Carbon Footprinting etc,  planning actions to improve your reputation and demonstrate your responsible approach to the environment.

Take a look in more detail at how we can help you and your business using the tabs above.

CBEN is a project delivered by the Cumbria Rural Enterprise Agency.
CREA also have a number of other projects and events that they deliver to support businesses in Cumbria, take a look at the CREA website for more details.
