During Emergency Preparedness Week, May 1 to 7, the Bowen Island Emergency Social Services team will be setting up an information table at various locations in our community.
For Emergency Week, the team invites all islanders to take a few minutes to make a family emergency plan. This will help your family know what to do and how to stay in touch with each other when an emergency happens.
By doing your part, first responders will be able to focus on those in urgent need first during an emergency. A little planning and preparation today can make a world of difference for each of us and our families.
More information is available at www.getprepared.gc.ca and www.pep.bc.ca (under the Emergency Preparedness tab) and please visit our ESS table.
72 hours...Are you prepared? The time is now.
