Our vision and values

What is the Vision?

The Lake District National Park will be an inspirational example of sustainable development in action.

A place where its prosperous economy, world class visitor experiences and vibrant communities all come together to sustain the spectacular landscape, its wildlife and cultural heritage.

Who is going to make it happen?

Local people, visitors, and the many organisations working in the National Park, or have a contribution to make to it, must be united in achieving this.

The Lake District National Park Partnership developed and agreed the Vision - and it is a key force for action.
