The Shire encourages all community members to reassess their existing emergency plan or create one if they do not have one in place. Recent events remind us of the importance of being ready.
In Western Australia, bushfires, cyclones, storms and floods can happen at any time, so having a plan helps keep your household safe. Having a clear, practised plan can make a significant difference in the event of an emergency.
- Know your trigger to leave.
- Understand your safest routes.
- Prepare your property.
- Make sure every family member knows the plan.
Stay informed and download the Emergency WA App for real-time alerts, practical resources, and tools to build or improve your emergency plan. Search “Emergency WA” in your app store.
