'Civil defence is all of us'
We have a saying around here; ‘civil defence is all of us’. Our strength is in how we work together before and after an emergency. There’s even some pretty good evidence around the fact that people who are prepared for an emergency are able to cope better when something does happen!
A big part of my job is about building greater strength in our communities, so feel free to contact me at Marlborough District Council, to see how we can work together.
Have a safe week,
Catherine Coates
Emergency Management Officer
