UK tells public to keep three days' emergency supplies at home
The guidance lists water, food, cash and a radio as officials seek to help households handle outages, storms and cyberattacks for 72 hours.
- The Government launched the Ready campaign, urging households to stock three days of essential supplies to manage potential emergencies like power cuts, severe weather, or cyber attacks.
- Ensuring households can manage for 72 hours if everyday services are disrupted, The Government stresses anyone should remain "alert but not alarmed" without needing to panic buy.
- Recommended kits include nine litres of water per person and non-perishable food, alongside practical tools like LED torches, emergency radios, portable power banks, and first aid supplies.
- The Priority Services Register helps utility companies identify households needing additional support during interruptions, while The Government suggests checking supplies every six months to replace expired items.
- Building a kit gradually allows households to maintain independence during service interruptions, as a little planning makes managing potential outages significantly easier to endure.
