The Suffolk Resilience Forum (SRF) have now launched their revamped website.
This can be accessed by clicking on the "Suffolk Prepared" logo above.

The "Suffolk Prepared" website provides key information on the Suffolk Resilience Forum and their role. It provides details of any training which is being offered to the Community Emergency Planning Groups (CEPG) and any events which may be coming up. The Community Risk Register can be accessed from this site and this provides information on identified key area's of risk within Suffolk. There is also some very useful guidance for people, business or communities in the Get Prepared area of the website.

This website can be a useful source of information which will continue to be added to as required so why not take a look at it now, "Suffolk Prepared". There is also "contact us" option so if you have any thoughts on the website or you can't find what your looking for then contact the SRF.
