Disaster Planning for Your Home

Well summer is almost upon us and I am reminded of a poem by Dorothea McKeller

I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror
The wide brown land for me!

The poem is called My Country

I also love Australia, but there are plenty of potential terrors

As well as the large disasters such as Floods, Bush Fires, Cyclones, there are many events that may be a disaster to you on a more personal level. . . . .  so are you prepared?

Have you thought

    • How you might react in an emergency?
    • What you might need?
    • How your pets would be protected?
    • What is valuable to you?

Well the Red Cross, who have had a lot of experience in disasters, have provided some very useful information.
