This webinar is aimed at public health professionals and those working in emergency planning and response roles or working with patients and the public at the NHS England, national and local government, or voluntary and community sector, as there is an ongoing need to ensure that all staff working with patients and clients are trained both to understand the public health impact of adverse weather events and know how to prepare and respond to adverse weather incidents.
