THE TOOLKIT
What would you like to do?
Choose one tool. Each operates independently and creates its own PDF.
Preparedness, not a live warning service. These tools provide reference information and scenario estimates. Follow official emergency instructions and verify time-sensitive contact details.
TOOL 01 / 05
Electricity rota planner
Nominal electricity disconnection periods based on the Electricity Supply Emergency Code.
Levels are cumulative: higher levels may include additional disconnection periods. Select the level specified by official announcements, not an assumed forecast.

TOOL 02 / 05
Local emergency contacts
Relevant telephone numbers from your postcode, plus national emergency services.
Your local directory is ready to search
Enter a full postcode in the location bar above.
Telephone information may change. The directory uses a dated workbook snapshot and publicly available sources; provider boundaries are estimates and service lines may vary. For emergencies call 999 or 112. Confirm company details against a bill or official website.
TOOL 03 / 05
FM radio finder
Nearby UK FM transmitters, sorted by distance or frequency.
Your nearby FM frequencies

Transmitter distance is not a coverage prediction. Terrain, building materials, aerial, transmitter power and temporary services affect reception. Data: Ofcom transmitter technical parameters, snapshot published 5 August 2026.
TOOL 04 / 05
Emergency power calculator
Estimate portable battery runtime and your daily electricity requirements.
Battery and charging
Equipment used each day
DevicePower (W)Hours / day
These are estimates. Battery performance, inverter idle consumption, temperature, ageing, starting currents and charge-controller losses may significantly affect results. Solar estimates assume the entered sunshine hours and efficiency; they do not constitute a forecast.
TOOL 05 / 05
Location coordinates
Useful coordinate formats derived from the selected UK postcode.
Find the coordinates of a location
Enter a full UK postcode in the location bar above.
Approximate location: Postcode coordinates normally represent a postcode centroid, not an exact address or property entrance. For Northern Ireland, grid values use the Irish Grid, not the British National Grid. Service: Postcodes.io.
