What happens if the incident means I cannot get to or stay in my home?

We have designated several accessible and suitably equipped public buildings in Kent which can serve as emergency shelters for people displaced from their homes.

Each would be staffed by a mixed team of people to provide a range of support services to help you stay as comfortable as possible until you could return home or go to other temporary lodgings.

Information on where to find the shelters would be provided by local media, by the police and by other members of the emergency response teams in the area involved.
