Emergency Information Alerts in English for Residents & Tourists on Social media.
One of a network of very successful groups now covering a large part of Spain and its English speaking community. The EiA, as we like to be known, is the only group of its type covering all emergency threats dedicated to this very unique region offering the ability for its members to post information on emergency situations that are likely to affect themselves and other members personal safety. This regional group allows members to post important safety information that arises as the event happens for other members to be warned, to join in and offer their own input. The group covers anything that can be regarded as important information for its members whether it be travel disruption, bad weather, wild fire, crime, missing persons, earthquakes etc. The group also focuses on pre-warnings and forecasting of possible threatening events such as weather, heavy traffic movement, wild fire threat levels etc.
