What We Do

4Eden is a local charity providing coaching & support, services, and opportunities throughout the Eden Valley from our office based in Penrith. Our services specialise in learning disability, neurodiversity and additional learning needs.

We work closely within our local community, with local people, voluntary & community groups and local employers to offer a diverse range of work placements, employment options, clubs and social groups.

We network within our community to attract a variety of inclusive everyday activities that enable people to have friendships outside of paid support, focusing on independence, living and ordinary life – their ‘best life’.

🌟 Looking Ahead to 2026 on the Penrith Business Parks 🌟

As we start a brand-new year, we’re taking a moment to reflect on everything we’ve achieved together and look forward to what’s next.

Over the past year, your BID has been working hard behind the scenes to support businesses across the parks. From keeping the area clean and tidy with the help of 4Eden, to ensuring the council deliver on their commitments, to developing more free training courses, and gull management it’s been a year of steady, practical improvements.

We’ve also taken big steps with our wellbeing and greening projects - including preparing for the installation of our new Time Out Benches and walking routes, designed to help everyone working on the Industrial Estates take a moment to breathe, reset and enjoy the surroundings.

But we can only do our best work when we hear from YOU.
Every business on the Penrith Business Parks is part of the BID, and your ideas genuinely shape what we prioritise. Whether it’s training, infrastructure, security, environment or community - we want to know what matters most to you in 2026.

Here’s to a productive, positive and collaborative 2026 across the Penrith Business Parks! 🙌✨

Had your chocolate cake at our work today, absolutely stunning. I’m not good with cakes that are too sweet and this was just perfect.

Thank you so much for your hospitality yesterday. it was absolutely wonderful. I was delighted with the traybakes that I ordered and also the fact that you kindly supply refreshments at no extra cost. It was such a lovely gesture that meant so much to both myself and the people on the course.

The whole day was a huge success and I do feel that the comfort, warmth, and space in the training room played a large part in this. Everyone commented on the room, layout and pleasant atmosphere they were working in.

I look forward to returning in the New Year!

Fabulous training room, well equipped, comfortable and the best selection of teas in Cumbria, plus delicious home-made tray bakes, thank you!

Fabulous breakfast of ciabatta roll with bacon (the bacon was cooked to perfection) Fabulous choice of teapigs to choose from, but for me the best part by far was the use of local made pottery to serve the food and drinks (all of which you can buy from Brougham Hall pottery should you wish to treat yourself) Cafe 4Eden are driven by a view to helping local community – I’d highly recommend dropping in for stone soup or a cuppa. It was our first visit under the new ownership (and Kim’s footsteps are hard to fill) but it’s a 10/10 from us – we’ll definitely be back ?
