Emergency Planning for Severe Weather 2010

Capita s Emergency Planning for Severe Weather 2010 Conference equips delegates with the skills and capacity to support local communities to prepare an effective emergency response to extreme weather events and the impacts of climate change.

The National Risk Register (NRR) identifies severe weather as posing a significant hazard for the UK, incorporating the potential impacts of storms and gales, low temperatures and heavy snow, droughts and floods. With climate change predictions suggesting that the impact and severity of severe weather events will be more frequent and disruptive, it is essential that action is taken now.

The success in limiting this disruption depends upon actions from a variety of agencies working together including emergency services, local authorities, health services and other government and private sector organisations.With expert speakers and award winning case studies, this conference will explore how severe weather events will affect local communities, how they may respond and what emergency and long term planning measures need to be undertaken to increase resilience.

Attend this conference to ensure the delivery of essential public services in severe weather, direct responses towards limiting the degree of disruption caused and protect those most vulnerable in your community.
