When you think about a multi-agency exercise you probably think it lasts a day, maybe two. But in the North East last year, Exercise Cerberus lasted over six months, involved organisations from across the region and tested how to respond to a marauding terrorist attack in a major sports venue. The MTA scenario is being tested across the country in different ways but for this session, our panel will share how they approached it and ended up winning an award too.
