What you can do 

The Council provides general advice to residents on how they can prepare for an emergency. Much of this advice is common sense, but planning ahead could keep you and your family safe.

What your business can do 

Businesses have a vital role to play during an emergency and are a driving force in the subsequent recovery. To help our business sector prepare for potential disruptions, the Council is keen to promote the principles of Business Continuity Management.

Civil Contingencies Joint Service 

Barking and Dagenham Council plays a key role during emergencies by supporting the work of the emergency services, providing assistance to those affected and maintaining council services. The Civil Contingencies Joint Service is responsible for ensuring the Council fulfils its obligations in this regard.
