Get Ready Week in Bundy: What you need to know

Get Ready Queensland Week has launched across the state including in Bundy.

It’s a chance for us to all prepare for extreme weather as we get closer to Summer.

The week runs until October 12.

Police and emergency services say theirs three steps to get ready – understand your risk, make a plan and pack a kit.

It’s as easy as:

• Understand your risk – impacts from extreme weather are different for everyone. Learn about what can happen where you live and how it could affect your family.

• Make a plan – make a household emergency plan so your family knows what to do and who to contact in extreme weather. It only takes a few minutes and will give you peace of mind that your information is in one place. The online form makes it simple to plan for an emergency, by knowing what to do and who to contact.

• Pack a kit – grab a few extra items next time you are at the shops to make an emergency kit.
