How quantities work & food guidance

Food and water scale with people × days. Need is your total; Have is your entered stock. Buy rounds the shortfall up to whole packs. Adjust food & stock above to change daily amounts or exclude a food.

Food amounts are adult-style examples, not official rations or a complete nutrition plan. Adjust for ages, appetite, allergies and diets. Finish opened tins/pots or follow refrigeration instructions.

Check means reusable kit: start with one torch, power bank and blanket per person, and one opener, radio and first-aid kit per household. Use what you own; batteries and charging may need more for longer periods.

Allow 3 litres per person per day for drinking, plus extra for cooking, washing, pets and individual needs. Longer periods are your planning choice, not an official recommendation. UK Be Ready guidance ↗
