🚨DAY 4 – SPACE SAFE🚨

Look up and get involved – anyone and everyone can get engaged with space awareness! Today introduces the concept of space-related risks, including Near Earth Objects (NEOs) such as asteroids and comets, alongside wider space hazards.

NASA’s Planetary Defence NEO Observation Programme finds, tracks and characterizes at least 90% of all predicted NEOs.

Telescopes around the world are used to track them across the sky to gain information on their shapes, sizes, and composition.

Science and early warning systems play a key role in keeping us safe, global collaboration is important! Find out more here:

🚨DAY 2 – POWERCUT PREPAREDNESS🚨

While many power cuts are resolved quickly, some can last longer and have bigger impacts on you and your community.
It can be useful to keep a charged power bank, torch and batteries at the ready.

Remember to call 105 to report a power cut.
Check in on your friends and family, especially if they are vulnerable.
Stay safe by staying clear of fallen or damaged power lines, be careful using candles, and keep your fridge and freezer doors closed as much as possible to maintain food safety! 🔦

🚨 Incident update: Smoke from fire at Cardiff Docks

We are currently responding to a fire on board a ship at Queen Alexandra Docks, Cardiff.

There is currently no immediate risk to the public. However, firefighting operations may result in intermittent smoke affecting areas including Cardiff Bay, Cardiff city centre, and Penarth.

If you are in an area affected by smoke, Public Health Wales advises keeping windows and doors closed. If you feel unwell, seek advice from NHS 111 or your GP. In an emergency, always call 999.

Associated British Ports (ABP), who own and operate the Port of Cardiff, continue to support the emergency response.

We thank the public for their cooperation and ask that people avoid the area and do not fly drones while operations remain ongoing.

ICYMI: It could be hundreds of years before habitats destroyed by wildfires in Wales recover, the environment watchdog has said.

Nick Thomas, from Natural Resources Wales, explained that if soil was incinerated in upland areas rich in peat, which grows at about a millimetre a year, it could take centuries for the vegetation to come back in a similar way.

He called 2026 the worst year Wales has ever experienced for wildfires.

As well as damage to natural habitats and animal life, Thomas warned loss of soil could increase flood risks, because it no longer acts as a "sponge" holding water on high ground.
