“The LRF partnership in Lancashire is strong and effective. We meet regularly to review our plans; we test them and learn from others to ensure that we are well prepared to respond should we need to. Be it flooding, wildfires, explosions or a pandemic; if you live in Lancashire you are in good hands.”

Chief Superintendent Richard Robertshaw, General Purposes Group Chair, Lancashire Resilience Forum

“We’re fortunate in Lancashire to have a strong and effective resilience forum with over 70 engaged partners, looking after 1.5million residents. Our dynamic way of working with both local and regional partners means we are always looking to improve our planning and response; working together to plan, prepare and respond to emergencies and critical incidents is our main purpose – we’re well practiced in this.

“I’d like to thank you for your attendance today, as the LRF Preparedness Day is another brilliant opportunity for us to network, collaborate and further prepare to deliver an outstanding service to people and business in Lancashire.

“On behalf of the Executive Team and LRF Secretariat, we thank you for your continued dedication to the forum, and look forward to building our future together.”

Steve Healey, Executive Chair, Lancashire Resilience Forum

“Our priority is making sure that residents in Lancashire have the right information to help them plan, prepare and respond to risks and emergencies should they arise. Our social media channels and the website create a central point for key tips and all the information that you may need. You can also sign up for alerts so we can keep in touch with you.”

Liz Riding, Warning and Informing Group Chair, Lancashire Resilience Forum
