Message from Sandy Baptie, Emergency Planning and Risk Manager, East Lothian Council.
The CitizenAID free smartphone/tablet app gives advice on how the public can take immediate action following, or during a terrorist attack/incident. It offers advice on what to do and also offers some basic advice on how to deal with injuries that may result from such an attack/incident. It also offers information on what to do on discovering a suspect bomb and the immediate actions to take after a bomb has exploded. Thankfully, it is not likely you will ever require to use the information, but the view ‘better to be prepared for any unexpected event’ is one I preach and follow! This app has been given considerable media coverage. More information is given below and on the CitizenAID website.
