in conjunction with Carlisle City
Council to form the Carlisle and
Eden Crime and Disorder Reduction
Partnership. Data and intelligence
has been collected to produce this,
the third audit of crime.

The partnership intends to prepare a


new strategy (April 2005 – April 2008).
This new strategy will focus on the
particular areas of crime which need to
be addressed in Eden and Carlisle and
will then draw up actions to tackle these
priorities.

other parts of the UK, whether on business or holiday, staff can book your
accommodation using the nationwide book-a-bed-ahead service and they

The TIC in Alston can also be used as a “one stop shop” by the local
community who can access information on a broad range of local authority
services together with logging onto the Internet at computer work stations
located within the building.
At Penrith’s Middlegate TIC you can get information or purchase tickets for
a wide variety of local attractions, events and performance venues. This
includes box office facilities for Penrith Players and the Theatre by the Lake
