Emergency Planning Workshop

Attend this workshop to learn how to create a personal emergency plan that’s tailored to your needs. Workshops are based on the Person-Centred Emergency Preparedness (P-CEP) approach developed by the University of Sydney.

What to expect?

• This 3 hour group workshop will provide you with an introduction to P-CEP and begin conversations about preparing for emergencies.
• Trained facilitators will guide you through the P-CEP toolkit to identify your strengths and support needs and plan for an emergency.  
• You’ll be given the P-CEP workbook to take home to help you develop your personal plan.
• There will be information and resources to help you understand local disaster risks.

After the workshop you will have the option to receive more support from facilitators to keep working on your personal emergency plan. 

Who should attend?

The workshops are designed for people who face additional challenges in an emergency situation including people with disabilities and seniors.

We encourage you to bring a family member, carer or support person so they can continue conversations about your personal emergency plan with you as situations change.
Please book an additional ticket if you plan on bringing a support person. 

If you have any accessibility or inclusion requirements, please let us know prior to attending the event. We will try to make necessary accommodations wherever possible. We may contact you to clarify details if required.
