Emergency Preparedness 12 Days of Christmas

Day 9

No phone or internet? What would you do?

*Have a solar or battery powered radio so you can keep up with the latest news and alerts.

*Know which radio stations to tune into for information during an emergency: https://civildefencesouthland.govt.nz/useful-stuff…

And how about stocking up on some board games for the family to stop them from being... well, bored.
