It collaborates with various organizations to collect and distribute donated goods and provides other assistance to those affected. Key partners include local governments, emergency services, charities, utility companies, housing organizations, businesses, and media. CERT's volunteers are central to its relief efforts. It aims to help communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies through information sharing, coordination, and raising awareness of flood risks.

Who are CERT (UK)?

Response CERT (UK) already has and is continuing to collaborate & engage with a wide range of groups, organisations, companies and individuals who have a role to play in any disaster situation This would be: Imminent flood threat supplies Emergency supplies distribution Volunteer support co-ordination Signpost & emergency hot desking Replacement homeware Secure communications with the relevant authorities Local Government Emergency Services Community Action Response Charity Action Response Utility Providers Housing Emergency Supplies NHS & Care agencies Homeware Donations Raising Awareness Media Responders
Local Government Environment Agency Carlisle City Council Copeland Borough Council South Lakeland District Council Allerdale Borough Council Eden District Council Cumbria County Council We share data with the EA - Environment Agency to help give more detailed information regarding the flood affected and the devastation to individual homes It is crucial to work with the city & district councils not just in Cumbria, but also the districts that adjoin Cumbria, including Lancashire, Yorkshire & Dumfries & Galloway in the Scottish Borders
Emergency Services Emergency services Police Fire NWAS Mountain Rescue GNAA Vehicle rescue While the emergency services continue to do a fantastic job, the impact a disaster has on them can be monumental Our aim is to increase our communications, to assist the emergency services & the community in disaster situations as we did during Storm Desmond This would be particularly effective in more isolated villages and farms, where the community links are stronger Also, we would be the link organisation within Cumbria which volunteer organisations and individuals flock to, so that we have a co-ordinated response within the 3rd Sector and those wishing to support during times of disaster in a safe and controlled environment
Community Action Response 3rd Sector Emergency Hubs Community Centres Reception Centres Emergency Food/ Drink Emergency Contacts Crisis Charities The City & District councils role at the time of any disaster is to respond to such emergencies with opening, managing and supplying emergency hubs/centres for residents to shelter and stay safe. During Storm Desmond there were grave failures, centres were flooded, no plan B and no real co- ordination, So we at CERT (UK) with our experience on the ground and having our emergency hub up and running within 24 hours of Storm Desmond hitting the County want to change this by: Linking in with the centres would ensure that the emergency supplies would be delivered by need as many do not have the facilities to store donations We would provide emergency packs, to include drinks, food, toiletries, bodycare & baby supplies individually tailored We continue to work with parish and district councils to formulate Emergency plans which link to our work and our services
Charity Action Response Action Charities British Red Cross Salvation Army Tunnel 2 Towers Rotary Khalsa Aid Age UK We have already established and built links with many charitable organisations, which has been crucial in immediate circumstances with communications to help, support, lifting spirits & hope This has also been instrumental in breaking down cultural, religious & social barriers The network of support continues to be built on and we are confident in the event of further floods we are only a phone call away from potentially hundreds of volunteers co-ordinated within the structures & procedures which we have put in place to manage this We also have registered volunteers and supplies to assist families in clearing the flood residue
Utility Providers Utilities Electricity Gas Water Drainage Oil Telecoms We are in communications with various utility providers : Looking at options to see what utility services can do to minimise damage, possible solutions and preventative measures with some conformity We want a real time service communication for reinstatement of services for the properties & areas that lose their supply Also, looking at how the utilities communicate remedial/structural work related to damage caused by disasters to the general public
Housing Housing Housing Association Council Housing Private Landlords Business Landlords Supported Living Letting /Estate Agents Housing is an area that CERT (UK) plans to raise awareness & link in with accommodation providers During an emergency situation finding appropriate accommodation to move families who have specific needs/vulnerabilities i.e. disabilities and/or additional needs, is vital to ascertain prior to an event to reduce the chance of families being split up when the event occurs Building trust and reliability to assist with accommodation solutions, quickly, efficiently & within budget

Resilience & Awareness Flood Awarenesss Schools & Further Education 3rd Sector Agencies Businesses Farming Community Community Groups Civil Society Groups Building social awareness within the community is critical for engagement We are actively working with the farming communities which have been left decimated, these are the hard to reach communities as they are reluctant to ask for help, going forward we aim to set up a therapy project which will help them to recover from the after effects of Storm Desmond We deliver talks to schools, groups and communities which want to find out more about how we can support them, but also what they can do to help themselves Quote: If we do what we have always done.
