Dealing with Emergencies

Current Emergencies:- There are currently no major emergencies

 

The Government is working hard to make sure that the UK is as prepared as it can be in the event of an emergency, and it is important that you are ready too. By being informed and prepared, you can significantly reduce the risk to life and property.

This website will tell you how you can help yourself and your family in emergencies. A lot of this information is based on common sense advice and may seem obvious or familiar to you, but it has saved lives in the past. It will also let you know what has been done to prepare and protect our country in recent years.

It also provide links to websites that give more detailed information - for example, on specific emergencies, organisations responsible for emergency planning and where you can find out about First Aid training.
