Help build a resilient Croydon

Building resilience is a shared responsibility. Croydon's approach brings together residents, voluntary organisations, businesses and public services to help communities prepare for and respond to emergencies.

Local knowledge and community feedback help inform the work of the Croydon Resilience Forum (CRF).

Start a community emergency group

Work with local residents to create a group that can help your neighbourhood prepare for and respond to emergencies.

Find events from Communities Prepared, the national community resilience programme.

Volunteer

You can support your community by volunteering with organisations such as:

  • Croydon Voluntary Action
  • British Red Cross.
  • St John Ambulance
  • The Salvation Army

Emergency planning

Croydon Council works with local organisations and community groups to help improve resilience and preparedness across the borough.
