Getting home in an emergency
It’s one of the uncomfortable facts of life that emergencies happen no matter where you are.
You might be at work, out shopping, walking the dog or having coffee with friends. Get everyone in your house to think about how you might get home (or to your agreed meeting place) after an emergency. Check out the route and any alternatives.
You can even walk your planned route to see how long it would take – a good reason to get out and about on a winter’s day!
