Our story
We Want to Understand How UK Households Prepare for Disruptions
What is ResiliKit?
ResiliKit is a consumer research initiative exploring how UK households prepare for unexpected disruptions. Our goal is to understand real-world preparedness challenges and develop practical, research-backed solutions that make emergency planning accessible for everyone.
Through surveys, user insights, and market testing, we assess what works - and what doesn’t - when it comes to household resilience. This research informs our digital tools, educational resources, and future product development. ResiliKit also serves as the foundation for doctoral-level study into consumer preparedness behaviour, contributing to academic and industry discussions on national resilience.
Who We Are
ResiliKit was founded by a team with expertise in crisis response, healthcare, humanitarian operations, and emergency preparedness. Drawing on real-world experience, we’ve seen firsthand how disruptions -power outages, extreme weather, cyber incidents - can leave families vulnerable.
We recognise that most people want to be prepared but often lack clear, actionable guidance. Our mission is to bridge that gap by providing evidence-based insights and practical tools to help households build resilience with confidence.
Academic & Industry Collaboration
ResiliKit welcomes collaboration with universities, policymakers, and industry leaders interested in strengthening UK household resilience. We actively engage with academic institutions to support research on consumer preparedness trends, behavioral insights, and emergency planning effectiveness.
We are particularly interested in working with researchers in public policy, risk management, and behavioral science to shape future resilience strategies. If you are part of an academic institution or policy body, we would love to explore partnership opportunities.
