VCS Emergencies Partnership

We are over 200 community and specialist organisations committed to working together in preparation for and response to major emergencies in the UK. Our network of organisations is committed to a more person-centred approach to emergency planning and response. By working better together, we aim to reduce the confusion and further trauma caused to individuals and communities by disconnected responses to emergencies. We exist to unlock the power of this partnership before, during and after an emergency by making the best use of our shared time and resources and bringing the voices of the local and national civil society organisations to the forefront for the development of greater national resilience.
