The United Workers Party (UWP) urges all Saint Lucians to prioritize safety and preparedness as Hurricane Beryl approaches our island.
Here are some key steps to take:
Stay Informed: Closely monitor weather updates from official sources like the Saint Lucia Meteorological Services (https://met.gov.lc/).
Prepare Your Home: Secure loose outdoor items, trim trees, and ensure windows are boarded up if necessary.
Stock Up on Supplies: Gather a non-perishable food and water supply for at least three days, along with essential medications and hygiene products.
Develop a Communication Plan: Establish a communication plan with family and friends in case of power outages or disruptions.
Secure Important Documents: Keep important documents like passports and identification cards in waterproof containers.
Follow Evacuation Orders: If you are in a low-lying or flood-prone area, be prepared to evacuate to a designated shelter when instructed by officials.
Stay Safe and Together:
We encourage everyone to check on vulnerable neighbors and loved ones, especially the elderly who may require additional assistance.
Let’s work together to ensure the safety and well-being of our entire community during this time.
