The website recommends 9 essential items that every home should have:

• Flashlight with batteries or manual charging.
• Power bank for mobile phone.
• Radio with batteries or manual charging.
• Spare batteries.
• First aid kit.
• Hand sanitizer and wet wipes.
• Bottled water (2.5–3 liters per person per day).

The government recommends gradually building an emergency kit.

The "Prepare" website emphasizes that emergencies happen every day and can be caused by extreme weather events, accidents, or deliberate actions.
