About

LARA is currently creating a nationally available, locally-focused, Virtual Community Support Centre (VCSC) around flood events.

The VCSC will be capable of operating 24/7, 365-day and supporting multiple simultaneous events.

To provide public, communities, businesses and others affected by flooding, access to organisations and charities that are able to provide them with briefings, information, advice and practical support during and in the immediate aftermath of a flood event.

The need for such a facility has been highlighted during the recent flooding over Christmas during the pandemic.

We currently have been able to establish the base software platform, but need funding to create the virtual environment and assist with the annual administration costs of operating the site.

Opportunities also exist for organisational sponsorship, to enable the facility to be FREE at the point of need. For additional information regarding this please contact LARA directly.

We believe this VCSC facility will play a vital and increasing role in the building of resilience and empowerment of local communities.
