What we do

We coordinate Norfolk's preparation for, response to, and recovery from emergencies. This means our partners work together to:

• Identify risks in Norfolk and assess their potential impact on our community. We provide this information in a Community Risk Register
• Produce emergency plans to mitigate or prevent the impact of incidents in our community
• Organise emergency preparedness activity across Norfolk
• Coordinate organisations to respond to emergencies in Norfolk - from first response through to recovery
• Carry out regular training events and exercises to test emergency response plans
• Promote examples of best practice internally and externally
• Share relevant information with our member organisations, resilience partners, and other resilience forums
• Share risk and emergency preparedness information with Norfolk residents and businesses, encouraging personal and community resilience

We are one of many local resilience forums across England. The forums were set up to improve the coordination of emergency response efforts in the United Kingdom. This was in response to the Civil Contingencies Act (CCA) 2004.
