Communities across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR) are being offered free, expert support to become ‘risk ready’, as part of our new 'Risk Ready Communities' programme, to help them tackle threats like flooding, power outages and disease outbreaks.  

We're delighted to be shortlisted at the national Business Continuity Awards for our Risk Ready Businesses project.

More than 40 volunteer Flood Wardens joined our Flood Warden information day, to support their vital work in keeping communities safe during periods of flooding and severe weather.

Resilience never stands still - so our teams are constantly learning to stay prepared for new and emerging threats in the communities we serve.

Businesses can book now for a series of webinars to help them prepare for key risks like flooding, power outages and cyber attacks.

All Leicestershire flood wardens are being invited to attend a flood warden information day on Saturday 7 March 2026 to help them support local communities tackle the threat of flooding.

Tori Edwards, Operations and Contingency Planning Sergeant for Leicestershire Police, explains why resilience is everyone's business - and how the small things we do can make a big difference.

A workshop to boost resilience and effective emergency response around high risk sites was the latest training to bring together partners from across the LRF.
