Prince William to unveil national plan to ready UK communities for extreme weather

Prince William is due to launch Ready Together, a National Emergencies Trust initiative designed to help UK communities prepare for and respond to emergencies including flooding and wildfires. The scheme focuses on practical local planning involving residents, volunteers, businesses and emergency services.

Why this matters

Prepared Base view: Preparedness is becoming much more mainstream and community-led. That makes resilience feel less like a niche 'prepper' activity and more like sensible household and neighbourhood planning.

What you can do

Check whether your council or local community has a resilience or emergency-planning group. Swap contact details with neighbours and make sure your household knows what to do during a local emergency.
