The National Consortium for Societal Resilience [UK+], abbreviated to NCSR+, was established 'to enhance the UK[+] whole-of-society approach to resilience, so that individuals, community groups, businesses, and organisations can all play a meaningful part in building the resilience of our society'.
The NCSR+ was founded and is co-chaired by Alliance Manchester Business School and Thames Valley Local Resilience Forum (LRF).
The NCSR+ involves 62 organisations that are central to building resilience in the UK[+]. These organisations represent resilience partnerships, sector partners and the community.
The NCSR+ members work with local communities to reduce risks at source, understand changes in vulnerabilities, and enhance levels of preparedness for emergencies. But, such planning needs strong collaboration because disruptive events affect people differently and cross local boundaries so relationships are key. This involves collaborating with local communities of all shapes, sizes, and cohesiveness with the view that every individual, community group, business, and organisation can benefit from becoming more resilient.
