Stay safe, calm, and in control during a power cut and other modern emergencies with What to Do When the Lights Go Out.

Unlike traditional survivalist manuals that dwell on extreme scenarios, this reassuring guide is firmly rooted in real life. It teaches you how to prepare sensibly and build genuine self-sufficiency in a world where outages, shortages, and unexpected interruptions are increasingly common.

For example, you'll learn how to:

  • Take charge in the first five minutes, assess the situation and keep your household safe.
  • Light your space safely and creatively with clever DIY hacks.
  • Stay warm without power.
  • Keep cool in a heatwave.
  • Cook without electricity, from simple no-cook meals to outdoor and campfire cooking.
  • Manage food and water supplies, including collecting, filtering and purifying water.
  • Maintain hygiene with limited or no running water.
  • Support children, seniors, pets, and vulnerable neighbors.
  • Decide when to stay put and when to leave, using the easy-to-follow REDOUT decision framework.
  • Assemble a realistic, no-nonsense bug-out bag filled with what people truly need in an emergency.
