Could you stay at home for three days or more? In an emergency, you may not be able to leave home - power or water supply can also be affected.

👉 Take a few minutes to figure out what supplies you and your family will need to stay safe and comfortable. https://www.aucklandemergencymanagement.govt.nz/get-prepared/get-home-ready/emergency-supplies/

The good news? You probably already have most of what you need. Your pantries, cupboards and garage are full of everyday items that double as emergency supplies. Just make sure you know where to find them in a hurry (or in the dark!) 💡
You and your neighbours can help each other by sharing supplies too.

A few essentials to have ready:
✅ Water and food for three days or more
Keep at least 3 litres of water per person per day (for drinking and basic hygiene)
Choose long-lasting food that doesn’t need cooking. Don’t forget babies and pets.
✅ Medications and first aid
✅ Chargers, torches and batteries
✅ Radio or another way to stay informed
