The government’s Be Ready campaign is aimed at persuading people to stock up with supplies to last 72 hours, amid growing official concern about the impact of the climate crisis, technological dependency and hostile state threats.

Stocking up for three days is considered to be a realistic and practical proposal for households and would bring the UK in line with France, the Republic of Ireland and the Netherlands in advising people how to prepare for serious disruption.

We’d like to hear from people are stockpiling supplies in case of a serious emergency. What food items do you have in your cupboard? What other items have you set aside such as torches and first first aid kits? What other ways are you preparing?
