The Duke of Cornwall Community Safety Award was launched in 2012 in response to significant flooding in Cornwall.
The award aims to educate and train young people to assist before, during and after a crisis. It was developed to give young people in the UK an opportunity to learn what to do in an emergency situation, such as severe weather, a pandemic or long term power cut. The award is open to young people between the ages of 5 and 18.
There is no requirement to register to take part in the award scheme. All of the materials and resources are available from this site.
