HOW WE RESPOND

Many organisations have to work together in the response to an emergency and their individual plans have to link to those of the responding organisations.

The attached document entitled "Managing Emergencies in Cumbria" is published by Cumbria Resilience Forum and details how response and co-ordination takes place in Cumbria.

Information is presented on this and the following broad categories;

• Command, control and co-ordination
• Managing the response
• Main roles of the agencies involved
• Supporting those affected
