An emergency bag is not a package prepared once and forgotten. Its contents should be renewed according to the age, health, season and daily needs of the household.
Group the supplies
Review water, shelf-stable food, regular medication, first aid, lighting, radio, backup power, document copies, hygiene and clothing under separate headings. Every family member should understand the purpose of key items.
Test by operating
Do not inspect the torch, radio, power bank and radio batteries only by sight. Turn devices on, track expiry dates in writing and store the bag in a safe, accessible place.
