Pleasure craft licence

Every business which hires out pleasure craft such as motor boats, rowing boats and canoes, must be licensed to do so.

Each craft is checked by an inspector appointed by Allerdale Borough Council on an annual basis.

Cumberland Council

On 1 April 2023 local government in Cumbria changed, with Cumberland Council providing all your council services.  

Don't worry though, your bins will be emptied as normal, and you'll still be able to speak to the same team about any enquiries to do with things like council tax, benefits, planning or any other service.

Find out more about the changes.

Keep up to date by finding and following the new council on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
