Our risks in North Yorkshire
The Government creates a national risk register outlining risks that could affect the UK in the next two years and provides guidance for the public. You can see the national risk register on the government website.
The North Yorkshire Local Resilience Forum has created its own community risk register, which highlights the risks that could have an impact on our local communities and how you can prepare and respond.

Inclusion of these risks does not mean that they will occur, and the forum has plans in place to respond if needed.
