Understanding the hazards and threats we may face helps us understand what we need to prepare for. The National Risk Register feeds into the London Risk Register.
We work with the London Resilience Partnership, which coordinates institutions and communities to prevent, handle, recover and learn from disruption, and adapt to change; on behalf of the Mayor of London, Greater London Authority, Local Authorities and London Fire Brigade to ensure London survives and prospers.
The risk registers mentioned are the documents which details major risks that we may face. The Brent Council Risk Register is tailored specifically for risks that could affect us in the Brent area.
Community Resilience Guide Book (.pdf, 1.54MB) details the main risks that could affect residents, businesses and visitors. It gives a localised picture and helps us to prioritise planning and allocation of key resources to ensure we are resilient to our most severe and/or common risks.
For the purposes of this register, a risk is a hazard that has the potential to result in a major emergency. The register records information about risks in Brent. Information includes descriptions, types of categories as well as the likelihood of its occurrence as well as the impact of the risk if it materialises.
The Brent Borough Resilience Forum (BRF) meets with Category 1 and 2 Partners quarterly. The members of the forum review the risks annually that could happen in Brent.
