How Penallt’s emergency plan works

A short introduction to what residents can do now and how the community will respond together during an emergency.

BE READY AT HOME

Small steps now make a real difference.

Keep essential medication, drinking water, food, torches, a radio, power banks and a paper contact list where they are easy to find. Agree household meeting places and include children, pets and medical needs in your plan.
