The Disaster Response Challenge is a unique two-day event exclusive to the British Red Cross. It provides an opportunity for participants to experience firsthand the issues and decisions faced by the British Red Cross Emergency Response Unit (ERU) - something that only a handful of people get to experience in a lifetime. Built around a hypothetical disaster that unfolds in real time, this Challenge tests the calmest and most practical of you as you develop your own disaster response plan. You will be taken out of your comfort zone, into an environment where in real life your decisions would be a matter of life and death. More details
