The past two severe winters have really stretched the resilience of our local communities and the efforts of Falkirk Council to keep vital services going.
All Council services have been making advance preparations to respond in the event of another severe weather situation.
In order to maximise the impact we can all make on a potential difficult situation, residents can make some advance preparations that could make their daily routine a bit easier.
The most comprehensive information can be found at www.readyscotland.org|
We have also prepared some useful information that you can view below as well as providing links to other relevant organisations.
Scottish Water| is advising everyone to make sure that their homes are properly insulated and pipes are lagged etc.
