Hello and welcome! So pleased that you wish to learn more about our programme and hopefully the information here will encourage you to join us.
Training is available online and consists of 3 short, but compulsory modules and then your chosen role based training.
If you’re here for information about the Snow Warden role then all you need to do is complete the short, online module and followed by a volunteer registration form. Volunteer registration is processed by Voluntary Action North Somerset (VANS) via their registration form / website so if you have any questions please do get in contact with the Team at VANS who will be happy to help you.
Once you have completed the online training relevant to your chosen role (s), the next step is to submit a Volunteer Registration Form followed by a head & shoulders photograph; preferably against a plain background via email to communityresilience@vansmail.org.uk.
CRNS also provides training events and workshops to develop skills and prepare you for your chosen role, informing you of risks and how the wider response community prepares for and responds to these.
Alongside our professional partners we actively promote local and national resilience initiatives, we are advocates for seasonal flu vaccination, winter weather, heatwave preparations and flood mitigation.
CRNS actively encourages household resilience and have developed a ‘Home Emergency Checklist’ that we make available for volunteers to promote and distribute at events and fetes.
We believe in the ethos that communities are best placed to care for their community; sometimes they just need a little help.
