What is the Bedfordshire & Luton Local Resilience Forum?
The Bedfordshire and Luton Local Resilience Forum (BLLRF) was
formed in 2004. It brings together the emergency services, local
authorities, National Health Service and other agencies which are
all required to respond to any major emergency in Bedfordshire and
Luton.
As well as dealing with the aftermath of an emergency, all services
and organisations work together to ensure that the best possible
plans are in place. These are regularly tested and updated so that
agencies can respond immediately and effectively to any threat. All
responders work to a set of common objectives, which will help
to:
- prevent the disaster getting worse
- save life
- relieve suffering
- restore normality as soon as possible
- protect property
- facilitate a criminal investigation and judicial process if
necessary.
Bedford Borough Council contributes articles and advice to the
BLLRF website. For more information follow the Bedfordshire and
