Collaboration and community are considerable resources in a crisis. Talk to the people around you about what may happen, how you may be affected, and you can get through it together.

Self-preparedness in multi-household living situations
The community and neighborly ties within a housing association offer unique opportunities for cooperation. The board can, for example, consider whether residents can join forces to store drinking water in the basement or other common areas.
The board will also be responsible for assessing the overall risk to the building in connection with storage of flammable gases and liquids.
