New resource from DCLG - Local communities and civil protection

Faith communities plays a huge role in responding to the needs to their neighbourhood in times of crisis.  They have enormous resources and expertise which can be used in an emergency.  The Department for Communities and Local Government and Voluntary Sector Civil Protection Forum have been working together to develop a short guide for Local Resilience Forums and faith communities engaged in civil protection. The attached short guide aims to raise the importance of engaging the faith communities, as they have much to offer to the victims, their families and their communities.
