The aim of the 2014 Exercise Cygnus was to test the UK’s ability to manage the effects of an influenza pandemic at national, regional and local levels. It was postponed on a UK level due to the required preparation work on Ebola. The exercise, however, ran as planned in Wales and tested the local plans in all four Local Resilience Forum (LRF) areas.
