Emergency Planning for Severe Weather
Friday, 15 October 2010, Central London
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. Climate change predictions suggest the impact and severity of severe weather events will be more frequent and disruptive, so it is essential that action is taken now.
The success in limiting the disruption depends upon the actions 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, Capita’s Emergency Planning for Severe Weather Conference will equip delegates with the skills needed to support local communities and prepare an effective emergency response to extreme weather and the impacts of climate change.
Please visit the website for further details.
