How can scenario exercises help communities prepare for real-life emergencies?
This webinar workshop on Thursday 30th July at1:00pm will explore how practicing emergency scenarios (e.g. for heatwaves, civil unrest, power outages) can bring people together, build confidence, and strengthen local preparedness.
Scenario exercises offer a hands-on, engaging way for communities to test their plans, spot gaps, and grow more resilient before a real crisis hits.
Led by Katherine Hill from the British Red Cross, the session will share how to design meaningful community exercises, create realistic scenarios, and involve local partners. You will also hear inspiring real-world examples of communities learning, adapting, and becoming stronger through practice.
Open to community groups, volunteers, local authorities, and partners from across and outside London.
