Summerland Emergency Support Services

Now that the days are longer and we think about being outside, Summerland Emergency Support Services Volunteers encourage you to Firesmart your property. Plenty of information available at Firesmart BC. During a wildfire we will all have to work together to ensure the safety of our community. https://firesmartbc.ca/

Fire Smart BC has all the information you need to protect your property from Wildfire. https://homeowners-manual.firesmartbc.ca

See link below for all EmergencyBC information. Summerland ESS is ready to assist for any emergency. You can help us by being prepared too. Create a Grab and Go bag and a Emergency Kit. Have a family plan that includes steps to take if you are separated or not together. Keep your bag in your vehicle in case you can’t get home. Remember to plan for the safety of your pets.

When choosing an emergency meeting place consider a virtual one too! Create a closed Facebook group for everyone in your home to check in during an emergency. ...Don’t forget to add your emergency contacts to your phone, and make sure everyone includes an out-of-province contact.
