When emergencies happen, it is important to be prepared. Many people already have a bag prepared in the event of an emergency.
An emergency “go bag” is a portable kit that includes the items that you need to survive if you must leave your home following an earthquake.
Following the recent earthquakes in Turkey, sales of go-bags have soared along with flashlights and whistles.
What should my ‘go bag’ contain?
Your passports, birth certificates and other important documents (or photocopies) should be in your bag.
- Flashlight and Batteries
- Multi-Tools
- Emergency Food bars
- Dust protection facemasks
- Duct tape
- Rain ponchos

Remember your pets
Have your animal carrier prepared along with some food for pet.
These are a few of the items that you will need in an emergency. Every family should pack their bag to suit their needs. There is plenty of information on the internet telling you what you need. All you have to do is type go bag checklist into your search engine.
