© Crown copyright Met Office Questions & answers

© Crown copyright Met Office Cold Weather Plan - role of the Met Office Provide meteorological input and other appropriate assistance to DH for development of Cold Weather Plan. Monitor weather conditions and issue Cold Weather Alerts as required, to agreed recipients, from November 1st – March 31st Work with BBC and others to ensure consistent media messaging and provide support for press releases, interviews and briefings. Met Office Public Weather Service Advisors engage with Cat 1 responders in the event of a cold weather event to ensure they are fully briefed and are clear on actions to take.

Communications evaluation © Crown copyright Met Office What worked well? Coordinated approach was very successful in getting messages out quickly in the event of an alert being issued The campaign received some high profile media coverage Message penetration in media coverage was excellent Good volume of localised coverage reported back to us by Age UK Lots of discussion about the alerts taking place on Facebook and Twitter What didn’t work so well? The timings of the alerts made it difficult for Age UK to respond in time to get radio adverts out (unfortunately this couldn’t be rectified) Risk of Cold Weather Alert fatigue – alerts were thought to be too frequent Messages needed refining – too many messages on the joint branded poster
