Campaign Think Ahead
Today, Nov. 17, the municipality of Nuenen is participating in the national action day of the public campaign Think Ahead. With the campaign, municipalities, safety regions and the Rijksoverheid are calling on everyone to prepare for an emergency situation. For example, think of a major power outage, as happened this spring in Spain and Portugal. With an emergency kit and an emergency plan, you ensure that you and those around you are well prepared.
All over the Netherlands today images appear with the text, "NL falls out. It could just happen. Are you already prepared? Check www.denkvooruit.nl". The purpose of this action? To let people experience for a moment how dependent we are on things we normally take for granted and to encourage them to take action themselves.
Gemeente Nuenen believes it is important that we are prepared for emergencies. We hope it doesn't have to happen, but if we all prepare ourselves we will be strong together the moment it goes wrong. We therefore call on you:
- Put together your emergency kit.
- Make an emergency plan .
- Talk to each other and help each other. Are neighbors, friends and family safe in a crisis situation? Look around for those who may be struggling should it get that far.
