When disasters strike, communities need more than warnings, they need a trusted voice. That’s where ABC Emergency broadcasting plays a vital role.
Suzy Ramone, one of the voices of ABC Emergency, has been on-air during some of Australia’s worst disasters. She knows the power of reliable information and how much it matters when people are frightened and looking for guidance.
Her advice is simple: always have a battery-powered radio in your emergency kit. Power and mobile networks can fail during bushfires, storms, and floods, but a radio will keep you connected to real-time updates and emergency warnings.
ABC’s role goes beyond just broadcasting alerts. They provide context, reassurance, and a human voice that helps communities make safer choices in dangerous times.
