Preparing in advance
Prior preparation is the best way to survive any natural disaster.
While cyclones and flooding are most common in our area, we
could also experience fire, tsunami, earthquake and landslide.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU                      PREPARE YOUR FAMILY BY DISCUSSING
WILL DO IN EACH SCENARIO:                             AND WRITING DOWN:
+ Know your risk.                                     + What might happen during a cyclone, flood,
                                                         storm or bushfire?
+ Decide in advance if you will evacuate or
  shelter in place.                                   + What will you do if an emergency happens and you
                                                         are in different locations (school, work, home)?
+ Know your evacuation route.
                                                      + Where you would evacuate to?

                                                      + Your emergency meeting places.
+ Take steps to limit damage to your property.
                                                      + How and when to call 000 or 112 from your mobile.
