Join others in your community to better plan, respond and recover from emergencies
At times of crisis, individuals and communities know best what their own needs are. With your help, we can ensure communities are engaged in emergency response, promote awareness of community needs and resources, and facilitate cooperation between communities, residents, and local authorities.
We support communities to build resilience through workshops, mentoring and resources for local people. Our advocates have played a crucial role in engaging local community groups, as well as successfully planning and delivering 30 workshops to hundreds of participants.

Community Resilience Advocates
Community Resilience Advocates
Our community resilience advocates help to build and strengthen links between community groups, local authorities and emergency responders. Through helping to run community workshops, they play a key role in supporting local people to identify their strengths and abilities to respond to emergencies. In addition, they use their local knowledge and experience to test new ideas about how community groups can work together with statutory agencies during emergencies.
