00:16including electricity supply.

00:18Whilst SP Energy Network storm shielders work around the clock to keep the lights on

00:22and protect their customers from the worst of the storms, we can do our bit as well.

00:27First of all, keep a battery-powered or wind-up torch within easy reach

00:31so you don't have to walk around the house in the dark.

00:33Make sure you keep your mobile phone charged, so if the power does go out,

00:37you can call SP Energy Networks on 105.

00:40If you do see any damage to power cables though, call 999 immediately.

00:44Keep blankets nearby and make sure you're closing shutters, blinds and curtains to keep that extra heat in.

00:51And if you feel like you might need extra support during a power cut,
