Emergency Preparedness Week is May 4-10, 2025. Are you and your family prepared in case of an emergency?
Like every municipality, regardless of size and location, Collingwood can be seriously disrupted by an emergency. This could take the form of a severe storm, flood, fire, chemical spill, or similar disaster.
All capable adults are responsible for being prepared for unforeseen emergencies. While nobody can predict an emergency, it is important to plan for a variety of possibilities. Your personal plan can make a significant difference to you and your family's well-being. Emergencies can and do occur without warning.
The resources on this page have been assembled to help you prepare.
Alternate formats or communication support for the resources provided here are available on request, to ensure that everyone in the community is fully prepared for an emergency. Contact 705-445-3920 for more information.
