Good personal preparedness includes entertainment and comfort items because one of the many consequences of emergencies are delays. No one likes to be bored and frustrated. The right items and plan can make a world of difference!
👥📚 ✍️🎲♟️🏓⚽️ Engaging in social games or activities can build networks of trust and support and keeps everyone's spirit up. Plan for age appropriate and favourite items that are easy to transport and do not rely on a power supply.

Welcome to day 23 September is #PreparednessMonth. Emergencies can also happen at night and so we're joined by @northantsfire and many others talking about #HazardHunt, #FireSafety and how to be better prepared for a #SafeEscape evacuation at night.

Let's begin with this excellent dramatization video from 🇨🇦by @The_Cooperators illustrating why personal #preparedness is crucial for #SafeEscape, #HomeFiresafety
😴⏰🔥😱↔️Being woken up by your fire alarm in the middle of the night is not fun and can be highly disorienting. A safe escape in such a situation may well depend on previous experience. Practise means you will be ready and better prepared.

To begin, let's take a look at this video from 🇺🇸@CDCgov which looks at emergency food stocks for household preparedness. Their advice is equally valid no matter where in the world you are.


#emergencyfood #shelterinplace #preparedness #EMGtwitter
The US @KitCookOff campaign, supported @CDCgov, is running for quite a few years. It is not only super practical for preparedness but also great fun, especially if you are new and unsure what personal preparedness is all about.

Hello #MondayMotivation and day 10 #30days30waysUK on #PetPreparedness
Today's surprise is a celebrity guest appearance is by @ashleighnsully who share some #toptips. Open 'show thread' ↙️

#SMEM #EMGtwitter #PreparednessMonth
#Preparedness must include the animals in your care.
Whether small 🐶🐱🐹🐰🐭🐦🐟🐢
or large 🐴🐄🐑🐷 you must include them in your emergency plan and assure adequate supplies to meet their needs. Image
This includes having a secure carrier and your vet's details as well as animal medical information as part of your emergency plan and kit. If for some reason you must leave animals behind, it is essential that you inform your evacuation or rest centre immediately upon arrival.
