The National Risk Register is due to be refreshed this summer; the Cabinet Office Risks and Capabilities team will give a short presentation on the current threat picture, followed by a Q&A and an opportunity for partners to give their view and inform the update. The Network Call will also feature our standard Director's Update round-up from Robyn Knox.

Please contact info@vcsep.org.uk for the meeting invite.

This training focuses on three areas: i) the stages of planning, preparation, scenario design and how to debrief well, ii) the roles required to support delivery, iii) practical resources. Attendees will gain the skills to design, coordinate and run their own scenario exercises, either internally or with their network.

Whilst we welcome attendees with experience in planning or participating in exercises, this workshop is designed to support those less engaged in formal exercising structures to explore this way of working.

This event has reached full capacity. We’d love to have you join us at one of our other Train the Trainer sessions below.

• Wednesday 18 November, 3pm-4:30pm

In March, Horizon Resilience ran two well-received sessions on Crisis Fundamentals training, and they are back with another chance to join. Drawing on their experience at the heart of UK government crisis management, the training will provide participants with a strong practical foundation in crisis management principles, supported by a scenario-based discussion and applied learning. Attendees will go away with an improved awareness of crisis and resilience in the UK context, including how the voluntary and community sector fits within the wider resilience system and a practical understanding of the crisis lifecycle, from anticipation and response through to stabilisation and recovery.

These dates and times are unlikely to change. We occasionally run additional sessions if there is a specific need or ongoing emergency, and we will provide as much notice as possible for these.

The agenda for the June Network Call will be shared closer to the date.

We've teamed up with the ISRM to offer this fantastic training to EP Partners and their networks. Training and exercising are undoubtedly two of the most critical components in the development of an effective risk management and crisis response capability. The session is designed to give you the structures and frameworks to develop and deliver tabletop exercises from the simplest to the most complex. Developed through their own participation in developing and delivering training, and exercising programmes in multiple countries and with both government agencies and private corporations, this offer acts as a complimentary next step to those who've undergone our Train the Trainer Scenario Exercising, or for anyone who wants to affirm and enhance their exercising knowledge.

The agenda for the July Network Call will be shared closer to the date.

This is an opportunity to participate in an exercise designed to test information flow, build shared understanding of organisations’ strengths and capabilities, and discussing how we can work together to support people and communities in the context of a water outage.

Opening with an expert speaker to set the context, we will then work through a scenario involving a water outage and partners can explore and navigate their role in supporting those in our communities most at risk of harm.
