Community Risk

Having a consistent and standardised approach to community risk management planning (CRMP) across the UK assists services in transparent and justifiable decision-making to protect communities and helps to identify collaborative opportunities with partner organisations.

The Community Risk Management Planning methodologies and guidance also support FRSs to achieve the Community Risk Management Planning Fire Standard.

These are illustrated sequentially and in an easy-to-understand manner to emphasise that a CRMP process comprises three themes:

  • Data and Business Intelligence
  • Equality Impact Assessment
  • Stakeholder and Public Engagement

These themes support the main components which include:

  • Defining Scope
  • Hazard identification
  • Risk Analysis
  • Decision-Making
  • Evaluation
