July brought into focus the natural hazard, Excessive Heat. This month the awareness campaign and partnership between the NDMD and Department of Education had the Maude Crosse Preparatory School (MCPS) as its focal point. The children at this school used print and audio-visual media to educate the public on simple facts associated with Excessive Heat. They demonstrated some survival skills on how to encounter such natural hazard if it occurs.
The Nevis disaster Management Department encourages you to consider the information, and even share it as we work together to save lives. Remember, Let’s Beat the Heat.
Be informed and be prepared!
