Developing, implementing and coordinating multi-agency responses and action plans
Our collective work is focussed on saving lives, relieving suffering, protecting property, preventing further damage to the environment and preventing the impacts of a disaster getting worse to restore normality as quickly as possible.
Prepare, respond and recover
Local Resilience Forums (also known as LRFs) are activated to assist in responding to large-scale emergencies when a combined multi-agency coordination would result in a more effective and efficient outcome. Any one of the partner agencies can also activate the LRF when there is a requirement for additional capacity beyond their own resources.
LRF partners share responsibility to continually develop Lincolnshire’s resilience in the face of large-scale emergency situations, with guidance and support from lead government departments and agencies, local authorities, emergency services, health, utilities providers and communication providers and transport companies.
