PREPAREDNESS STARTS AT HOME

Prepare for a crisis in Sweden – Vinterrustad

This is a short introduction. A simple crisis guide is also available in English; most other Vinterrustad pages are in Swedish. This text is AI-translated and has not been reviewed by a human.

Vinterrustad helps people in Sweden understand and practise household preparedness. Learn what your household may need if everyday services stop working.

Plan for at least one week

Consider how your household would manage water, food, warmth, information, communication and payments for at least seven days. Make a plan that fits your circumstances.

Start with water, food, warmth and a way to receive reliable information. Check advice from the responsible authorities whenever a crisis is happening.
