What can you do to be ready for an Emergency?

If you find yourself involved in any emergency it is important to:

  • make sure 999 has been called if people are injured or if there is a threat to life
  • not put yourselves or others in danger
  • follow the advice of the emergency services
  • try to remain calm and think before acting and try to reassure others
  • check for injuries remember to attend to yourself before attempting to help others

If you are not involved in an accident but are close by or believe you may be in danger, in most cases the advice is GO IN, STAY IN and TUNE IN.  The Preparing for Emergencies website has more information on this.
