This is the website page we hope you never have to visit. However, emergencies occur and in a rural area the response can take that little bit longer. It is better to be prepared. It would be a good idea to have the information to hand and readily available. Waiting for your computer to re-boot may take forever if there is a power cut.
The Scottish Government have a website entitled READY SCOTLAND - Preparing for and dealing with emergencies. A key part of this is the preparation of a Family Emergency Plan. Further information can be found here:-https://www.readyscotland.org/at-home/
