Canterbury-Bankstown Council Local Emergency Management Plan

Council works in collaboration with emergency services and other g​overnment organisations to ensure the safety of the community. The Council and agencies refer to the Local Emergency Management Plan  which describes the arrangements to prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies.

AED register

The NSW government has launched a community automatic external defibrillator (AED) register.

AEDs are used to revive someone from sudden cardiac arrest and can help save lives.

The register will show the locations of AEDs across NSW and in our community. If you manage or have access to an AED, please register it on the map and help save lives.
