Hello Pat: I read your message in Museum-L. New York State in a new regulation will require all museums chartered by the Board of Regents to develop a disaster preparedness plan. Does the UK have a model plan, or suggested elements for a model plan? Hopefully, available on the Internet?

Dear All,
Disaster preparedness is a
"Big thing" in the UK at the moment, as all Accredited Museums will have to
have a plan written over the next five years. Many Regions are planning a
regional framework of response, but the East Midlands did this many years
ago.
The EM Museums Service work can't be easily transferred around the world -
not even to the south coast of England - but it's a helpful starting place.
I'd like to know of other Regional plans, and particularly those which
adress region-wide emergencies, such as hurricanes, fuel protests, and
animal disease outbreaks - and those which have business continuation
strategies.
Cheers,
Pat
