How resilient are you and your family?  What about your class? Your colleagues?  Are you ready for snow, ice, wind, flooding, rain?  Don’t worry, there are simple steps you can take, some have been listed below.  If you do any of them tweet using #ReadyScotland and encourage others to be resilient too!  For learning journeys and other resources to help deliver lessons in this area you can also visit bit.ly/RfEScot

Snow – keep a blanket, food and water in your car

Ice – identify the stop valve and know how to turn off water

Wind – secure loose objects like garden furniture, trampolines or anything that could get blown around

Flooding – move important documents and valuables to a higher place

Rain – avoid walking or driving through flood water
