Description
Our most complete home emergency kit, for a family of four: two room lights, four head torches, a solar wind-up radio that charges phones, a power bank, and ways to keep everyone warm when a storm takes the power out for a night or two.
What's in the kit, and why
- 1 × Wind-Up Solar AM/FM Radio with Torch and USB Phone Charging: AM/FM news during a power cut, with a hand crank and solar panel, and a USB port to top up a phone.
- 1 × Slim Power Bank with Digital Display, USB-C and USB-A: Several phone charges, so you can still call, text and check updates.
- 1 × Folding LED Camping Light with Remote, USB Rechargeable: Lights a whole room from the ceiling or a table.
- 1 × Rechargeable Folding Camping Lantern: A folding lantern for a second room, rechargeable.
- 4 × Rechargeable LED Head Torch with Motion Sensor, USB-C: Hands-free light for cooking, stairs and checking the fuse box; wave to switch it on.
- 1 × Hot Water Bottle with Plush Wrap-Around Waist Cover: Warmth that needs no electricity once you have hot water.
- 4 × Foil emergency blanket: Folds to the size of a hanky; keeps body heat in if the heating is off or you are stuck in the car.
- 2 × Emergency bivvy bag: A windproof sleeping bag liner that keeps heat in.
- 1 × LED Tea Lights, Flameless, Warm White, Pack of 12: Flameless light for each room: no fire risk, safe around children and pets.
- 1 × Self-Adhesive Foam Draught Excluder Strip, 4 m, Black: Seals the worst door or window draught so a cold room stays warmer.
- 2 × Emergency whistle: Attracts attention without shouting.

- Any medicines you need, and a basic first aid kit
- Spare batteries if any of your own devices need them
- Some cash, copies of important documents and a list of phone numbers
How it arrives
The items come from our UK suppliers and may arrive in up to 6 separate parcels. Check your kit once a year and recharge anything with a battery.
