I have been talking to someone from the Fire Brigade who asked me to add a couple of things to the fire plan – the ABC radio frequency, the need for an independent water supply, and a reminder that power will go down. I’ve also put in an order for a box of face masks (the ones used by the brigades!) I will let people know when they arrive. Ruth

hi ruth
thanks for putting this together, lots of useful ideas. one thought i can add, is that we have a list of all our immediate neighbours contact phone nos- work/ mobile/ home, so that if a fire starts nearby (especially on a work day) if someone is home they can start contacting people to fill them in on the situation ie come home to defend or get pets/ valuable and leave.
