Tabletop decision-making across 8 roles — pick up and play

No prior knowledge needed.
This exercise is designed to be picked up off-the-shelf by any team. Choose a scenario and role — your decisions mirror real emergency response principles including JESIP, business continuity, and national guidance. Decisions compound.
📌 Exercise Framing
Strategic WCS
Catastrophic multi-agency incident: mass casualty, critical infrastructure loss, prolonged community disruption — full Gold/SCG activation required.
Tactical RWCS
Manageable escalation with resource pressure: key decisions under time stress — the scenario you will play.
🎯 During the Exercise, Consider
💼 Business Continuity: Your organisation's critical functions and how they would continue to operate despite a disruption — and where the gaps in your plan might be.
📂 Response Plan: Refer to your organisation's Emergency Response Plan (or Business Continuity Plan). Does it cover this scenario? Where are the gaps?
🌐 National Guidance: Check GOV.UK Emergency Response & Recovery or your lead agency's website for up-to-date national frameworks relevant to this scenario.
