#BePrepared - Emergency Preparedness Kits

Unexpected situations can happen at any time. Having supplies ready is one way you can #BePrepared to better manage disruptions, big or small.

• Consider what you would require to both shelter at home and leave on short notice. 

• Essentials to start with include drinking water (4L per person, per day), non-perishable foods that don’t require cooking, and emergency cash. 

• Don’t forget to account for specific needs such as limited mobility or chronic conditions when putting together your list of essential items. 

• Refresh your supplies and kits regularly; the changing seasons are a good reminder (consider seasonal requirements when doing so).
