Charlbury Emergency Plan - can you help in the event of an emergency?
Nearly all emergencies affecting the community will be dealt with routinely by joint response of the emergency services, local authorities and the major utilities. However, there may be occasions when the arrival of outside assistance is delayed, and the community will need to help itself.
Charlbury Town Council is putting together a Parish Emergency Plan to provide contacts and a basic framework for managing the initial stages of a major emergency that may threaten the safety and welfare of the community, its people and property. It is not the intention of this plan to replace in any way help from the recognised emergency services.
In this (very unlikely) event, do you have resources or skills that could help?
We are looking for people with the following who would be willing to step forward if needed:
- Tractor/digger
- Lifting gear
- Inflatable boat/ Canoes
- Wheelbarrow
- Petrol driven Pump
- Four wheel drive vehicles
- Emergency lighting:
- Torches
- Portable LED Work Light
- Tripod Mounted Double LED Lights
- Camp beds
- Emergency supply of petrol
We also need a local electrician.
Your name would be on the publicly available Emergency Plan but your contact details would only be available to the Emergency Management Team.
If you have any of the above and are willing to be called upon in an emergency please contact Lisa.
Thank you.
