This year’s Emergency Services Show returns to Hall 5 at the NEC, Birmingham from 20 to 21 September with a strong focus on learning from past incidents and collaborating to protect the public and save lives. Attracting over 6,500 visitors and 400 exhibitors, The Emergency Services Show 2017 provides a unique opportunity to network and exchange ideas across the resilience, emergency planning and emergency services community, share best practice as well as to see and handle the latest technology and equipment.

As recent terrorist incidents in the UK have demonstrated, collaboration is key to co-ordinating effective response and recovery. “We continue to face challenging and difficult times and these events continue to highlight importance of collaboration, partnership working and using digital tools to be able to respond quickly, says Luana Avagliano, Head of Resilience Direct, UK Cabinet Office who will be presenting a seminar on the subject at The Emergency Services Show. Resilience Direct is a key partner of the show, along with JESIP and the National Operational Guidance Programme.
