We support our network of community and emergency specialists to come together throughout all stages of the emergency cycle.
Putting people at the heart of emergency planning and response to enable greater national resilience and a better experience for people impacted by emergencies.
SHARE INSIGHT
We review our responses and collect recommendations and actions from different emergencies to inform planning and shape our capability offer, so the learnings from emergencies directly influence the lessons in our activity. We use data and insight to encourage responses which puts people's needs at the centre to support decision making in preparation for, and during, an emergency. Our collation of data ensures sector and statutory partners have access to this learning and insight and challenges them to put it into practice when needed.
MAKE CONNECTIONS
We build and strengthen trusted connections to ensure that people across the sector are better prepared and can work together when an emergency strikes. We provide a framework to convene partners to build connections to connect more readily and rapidly. This involves sector and statutory partners, local community actors, emergency services and even the military to ‘make friends’ before an emergency so we are ready to respond effectively together when a major shock hits.
BUILD CAPABILITY
We work with the sector to identify and build skills and capabilities to ensure a more human-centred approach to emergency preparedness and response – whether that’s building awareness and understanding of the unique needs of a specific community or exercising scenarios ahead of time to identify gaps and work to fill them.
