Resilient Communities 1.1 what is a Resilient Community? Resilient Communities is an initiative supported by local, scottish, and the UK Governments, the principles of which are, communities and individuals harnessing and developing local response and expertise to help themselves during an emergency in a way that complements the response of the emergency responders. Emergencies happen, and these can be severe weather, floods, fires, or major incidents involving transport etc. Preparing your community and your family for these types of events will make it easier to recover following the impact of an emergency. Being aware of the risks that you as a community or family may encounter, and who within your community might be able to assist you, could make your community better prepared to cope with an emergency. Local emergency responders will always have to prioritise those in greatest need during an emergency, especially where life is in danger.
