Carlisle residents can help develop a new emergency plan at an October 16 event featuring flood preparedness advice.
Carlisle residents are invited to help develop a new emergency resilience plan at a city centre event on Friday, October 16, from 10am to 3.30pm. Botcherby Community Centre is leading the next phase of the project, which is funded by the CiFR Community Flood Resilience Fund.
A stall featuring a Flood Re van and Environment Agency representatives will provide advice on preparing for extreme weather and flooding. The Environment Agency will also explain how households can register for flood alerts and warnings. Residents will be able to share their views on the plan during the event.
Helen Fisher, manager of Botcherby Community Centre, said the project will 'help ensure our communities are better connected, better informed and better prepared for whatever the future brings'. Niall McNulty, Carlisle Community Resilience plan worker, noted that the Carlisle community has responded quickly to past emergencies including flooding and the pandemic, and that the developing resilience plan aims to build on this experience to minimise future impacts.
