Emergency Preparedness Solutions for Community Organisations
Practical emergency supplies and preparedness resources to help organisations support the people and communities they work with.
PrepMates works with community organisations, neighbourhood services, charities and not-for-profits to make emergency preparedness more practical and accessible. From emergency kits and individual supplies to preparedness resources and tailored projects, we can help develop solutions around the needs of the people you support.

Supporting Organisations That Support Their Communities
Every community organisation works with different people and circumstances. Preparedness solutions can be shaped around the needs of the community, the purpose of the program and the available budget.
Emergency Supplies
Preparedness Solutions to Suit Different Community Needs
Community programs do not always require the same solution. Some may need complete emergency kits, while others may benefit from specific preparedness products supplied individually or in bulk.
PrepMates can help organisations explore practical options around the people being supported, the risks they may face and the intended purpose of the initiative.
Supporting Local Communities
Practical Support Through Neighbourhood Services
PrepMates has supported neighbourhood and community organisations with emergency supplies as well as practical preparedness information.
Preparedness Resources Where They Can Make a Difference
We have provided free printed household emergency plans to Queensland neighbourhood centres for inclusion in food-support boxes distributed to people accessing community assistance.
This provides a simple way for practical emergency planning information to reach households through organisations already connected with their local communities.
Flexible Supply
From Complete Kits to Individual Essentials
Organisations can source complete preparedness solutions or select individual products to suit a particular program, distribution model or community need.
Community Collaboration
Working With Organisations on Practical Initiatives
PrepMates has supported community education initiatives including a collaboration with Live Learn Survive, supplying co-branded emergency bags for their program.
Projects like this demonstrate the flexibility to work with organisations on preparedness solutions that suit their own programs and communities.

Helping Preparedness Reach Further
Preparedness is not only about equipment. PrepMates develops practical emergency planning resources and Australian disaster preparedness guides that organisations can use to help people better understand their risks, make a plan and prepare for emergencies.
Where suitable, printed preparedness resources can also complement community programs and emergency supply initiatives.

Community Engagement
Preparedness Starts With People
We believe emergency preparedness should be understandable, practical and accessible to everyday people.
PrepMates participates in emergency services, resilience and community preparedness events, giving us opportunities to engage directly with households, community organisations and the people these initiatives are designed to support.
