Prepared and Ready for Emergencies Together.
Expertise at your fingertips; in your time, in your space.
We all know getting advice from an expert in person is as good as it gets. But sometimes, for lots of different reasons, that can’t always happen.
So here in Yorkshire and the Humber we’ve come together to build a tool that will put expert advice directly into the hands of businesses, communities and individuals.
Yorkshire Ready Together is an accessible, free, conversational tool that helps users find the information they need so they can be prepared for emergencies and resilient when they happen.
Built using the expert knowledge of responder agencies and the technical expertise of Hello Lamp Post, this constantly evolving tool aims to help businesses, communities and individuals fully prepare for different types of emergencies. These emergencies can include things like power outages, cyber-attacks, pandemics, residential fires or severe weather.
Understanding risks
Preparing for various risks is essential to ensure the safety and resilience of your business, community, and personal life. In this section, you will find valuable information on how to handle severe weather events, protect against malicious attacks, manage health emergencies, prevent fire hazards, and deal with utility disruptions. Our comprehensive guide provides practical steps and insights to help you stay prepared and secure. Engage with us to explore these risks in detail and ensure you’re ready for any major emergency.
