What to do in an emergency
What you can do
Keep a list of useful telephone numbers you may need in an emergency readily available.
Make arrangements with friends, neighbours or relatives for temporary accommodation if needed.
If you check your last utility bills you will find up to date emergency numbers and advice - keep this information near your phone.
Keep a set of emergency provisions in a convenient location in your home and ensure you all know where it is. Provisions could include: medication and prescriptions; warm clothing and/or blankets; canned food and bottled water; torch and batteries / candles and matches; basic cutlery and tin opener; portable radio and batteries (or a wind-up radio) .
Up to date information will be provided by local radio stations and through local press.
