Natural disasters can be destructive, they can wreak havoc across large areas and cause loss of life or damage to property. We cannot prevent natural disasters, but we can prepare for them.

These people have been trained to deal with disasters, have been through lots of them and know how to help. Make sure you have all the emergency contact numbers entered in your mobile phone.

Your emergency supply kit should include food, water Medications, personal hygiene items, copies of personal documents and some money. You may also need some extra clothing if you live in a cold climate.
