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 27 #30days30waysUK Not everything is an emergency so knowing how to #ChooseWell is important. Before we are joined by @NHFTNHS let’s start with this @ardengem video

If you are feeling unwell, there are a range of services available. You don't always need to see a GP or go to A&E. This is especially relevant when services are already stretched. #ChooseWell means quicker access to the right treatment for you and everyone else. Image

A good #MondayMorning, welcome to day 17 #30days30waysUK. We are joined by @jobayeshopp @NorthantsEPTeam and many others to talk about #invacuation or #ShelterInPlace in case of an emergency. The video explains:
↙️ open 'show thread'

#SMEM #EMGtwitter
Because of #severeweather consequences, e.g. #flooding or other safety issues, you may need to #evacuate and leave your house or flat. In such circumstances the local authorities will arrange temporary shelter usually termed reception or rest centres.
But there is also the opposite: 'INVACUATE'. Today, we share information and practical tips for when you are advised to go in, stay in and tune in or simply chose to #ShelterInPlace. Follow #30days30waysUK for information and top tips across social media today. Image
