Emergency Planning

As we all know, East Cheshire is a safe place to live and work, where major emergencies occur very rarely. However, when they do, they may require a combined response from the responding agencies in East Cheshire.

Consequently, the Council, the emergency services and many other agencies have worked closely to develop emergency response arrangements for any incidents that may arise. We develop flexible plans through a process called Integrated Emergency Management, which enables all responding organisations to deal effectively with a major or serious incident at any time of day or night, 365 days a year. These plans are also exercised on a regular basis.

So, please take some time to explore our web pages, and if you would like further information, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
