Hi Daniel
Welcome to VV. I'm the convenor for the Emergency Preparedness group and am spearheading the Dunbar program DEEP (Dunbar Earthquake and Emergency Preparedness).
Most of what we're doing in DEEP is not currently being posted to the VV site, really a time constraint on my part and working through the kinks. It might be easiest if we got together over a coffee to discuss the program and how we might expand to Kits.
Look forward to talking with you more about this.
Ann
