Current ePetitions

An e-Petition is a petition which collects signatures online. This allows petitions and supporting information to be made available to a potentially much wider audience than a traditional paper based petition.

Anyone who lives, works or studies in Cumbria can submit or sign an e-Petition.

E-Petitions are part of the Council’s ongoing commitment to listening to and acting on the views of the public. Please note that the views expressed in any e-Petition hosted on the Council's web site are not necessarily those of Cumbria County Council.

Select an earlier date range below to find completed e-Petitions and responses from the Council.

Submitting an e-Petition

An e-Petition can relate to:

  • any issue on which the Council has powers or duties
  • issues which affect the county or communities in Cumbria (so long as the Council is in a position to exercise some degree of influence)
  • anything relating to an improvement in the well being of the County to which any of the Council's partners can contribute.
