Emergency Planning
The Joint Emergency Planning Unit (JEPU)
Local authority emergency planning in Suffolk is organised in a joint unit comprising all of the Suffolk District, Borough and County Councils.
The aim of the JEPU is to facilitate the development, management, support and validation of integrated civil preparedness and business continuity management within Suffolk Local Authorities.
Woodbridge Town Council works with the JEPU and has developed an emergency plan.
What to do in an emergency:
In the event of any local emergency, if there is ANY threat to life dial 999 and alert the emergency services. If there is no perceived threat to life, but you have information that may help the emergency services, dial 101.
Further advice on how to prepare for an emergency can be found on the Suffolk Prepared website.
What Woodbridge Town Council can do:
Woodbridge Town Council have developed an Emergency Plan setting out our response in the event of an emergency. The Woodbridge Community Emergency Plan gives general guidance (only) to the local community; outlines actions to be taken by the Community Emergency Response Group, Councillors and volunteers; and recognises that it is complementary to any local authority or multi-agency emergency plans which are in existence.
