Planning for emergencies

We make plans to help the emergency services if an emergency situation creates problems that they need support with.

Our emergency plan outlines our role in an emergency situation, and sets out the information, procedures to ensure an effective, flexible and timely response to an emergency. We have a team of staff trained to assist in these circumstances. Our emergency plan is not available for the public to read as it contains people's private contact details.

We are part of the Leicester, Leicestershire & Rutland Local Resilience Forum and have helped create a series of contingency plans and guides covering the main identified threats to the area.

• Read guidance on emergency planning and how you can prepare for emergencies.
• Read a Government guide to the responsibilities of organisations in emergency situations.
• Read a guide to business continuity planning.
