Start with one useful job
The Office of Emergency Planning booklet covers risks, household plans, essential supplies, contacts and trusted information. Begin with the things already in your home. Keep a torch and the important numbers somewhere everyone can find. The official campaign encourages practical household and community preparation.[1]
Put your contacts on paper
Find your county’s council, GP and Garda contacts, then save or print a fridge card from Your home plan. Check the sources and dates. A card is a selection; the whole-plan download has the full contact list. Emergency numbers are 112 or 999, as confirmed by the national emergency service.[2]
Make the plan together
Agree a check-in with a neighbour or someone who may need help. Keep medicines and essential documents accessible. Use the official campaign resources for the booklet and accessible versions.[1]
What this site adds
County contacts, a local household profile and browser-made downloads can help fill out your plan. This is an independent service, published by Gallan Software. It is not a replacement for official instructions. The booklet material is credited to the Office of Emergency Planning and rewritten in our own words.
