Be prepared for any emergency: Download the Get Prepared app

Inner West Council urges all residents to plan ahead for emergencies by downloading the free Get Prepared app.

Emergencies can happen to anyone, so it’s important to take the time to prepare.

Being prepared can make an emergency less stressful, give you more control, and reduce the impact on you and those you love.

Get Prepared is a free easy-to-use app that helps you create your own personalised emergency plan.

Created by the Australian Red Cross, the app helps you to:

  • connect with your key support people
  • take simple actions to make you and your loved ones safer during an emergency
  • create a household emergency plan.

Get Prepared builds on many years of work by governments and the Australian Red Cross to help people prepare both physically and psychologically for disaster. The app helps you make important decisions ahead of time by completing an emergency RediPlan.

As a proud participant in the Resilient Sydney program, Inner West Council is collaborating with Councils across Sydney to support residents in being more resilient to disasters.  

Remember: those most at risk in an emergency are communities with the least capacity to prepare. That’s why it’s so important you are ready.

Do one simple thing to prepare: download Get Prepared - your all-hazards emergency plan companion.
