Is your business resilient to extreme weather?

Business Resilience isn't a snappy term for something as important as it is. Fortunately, weather metaphors come to the rescue... 

Is your business capable of weathering a storm? Have you the tools, information, and measures in place so when the storm does come, your business can 'batten down the hatches' and 'ride it out' until the sun shines again?

For businesses unfortunate enough to have been stopped in their tracks following an extreme weather event, the weather is no longer just a metaphor, its a real issue affecting your business continuity.

Like many areas of the UK, businesses across the Humber face the need to adapt to a changing economy, evolving work practices and social trends.  But unlike many parts of the country though, Humber businesses also need to be prepared for extreme weather events when they do happen, particularly flooding. 

Many businesses around the banks of the Humber were counting the cost of coastal flooding in December 2013, when a storm and tidal surge combined to create the near-perfect storm.

So is your business prepared?  Can it literally 'weather the storm'. The good folks at Humber Chemical Focus, Your Climate, and the Local Authorities across the Humber have come together to organise an event so you can find out more about the plans you need in place so your business can recover quickly when it gets knocked off its feet by extreme weather

Find out what the risks are, learn how others have responded, and get practical advice on how to be prepared for whatever the weather throws at your organisation.


Kapaciti will be there too so please look out for us!

Places at the event are free, but are limited, so please book on-line to secure your place.
