In a major incident we will use our emergency plans to respond to the immediate challenge and once this has been met, plan the recovery. We assess, plan for, respond to and recover from emergencies through the Cumbria Resilience Forum .This forum is a partnership of organisations and agencies involved with emergency response in our communities. The partnership includes the voluntary sector, these organisations play an increasingly important role in response and recovery. There is an opportunity for your business to join the forum and help local communities during a major incident. If you are interested, please complete the Protocol Document listed in Downloadable Documents.
