Emergencies can happen at any time. With a few small
steps you can prepare your family, your home and
your business for the unexpected things that can
cause disruption to our daily lives.
Is your family prepared for the kinds of things that can happen
because of an emergency?
- Power cuts, or disruption to fuel supplies
- Loss of telephone communications
- Flooding, at home, or at your place of business
- Becoming stranded while out in the car, or severely delayed on
a journey
- Evacuation from your home or business, either by yourself or by
the authorities, or being unable to get into your home or
premises
- Being confined to the indoors, at home or somewhere else
- Separation of family members
