RE: hi frm north manchester
Hi and welcome to the forum. This is definitely the place to be to have your questions answered. Spend some time on the main site going through the articles there and don't forget to read through older threads - a mine of information! I haven't been aware long either and also have only limited funds but only you can know what your greatest threat is. Prepare for that but not to the exclusion of the others. A bit at a time - a tin at a time. That was just about the first advice I was given and it's solid!

RE: hi frm north manchester
Hi, and welcome from the Scottish Highlands.
Where to start?,.. it cant be fully answered without knowing where about you are, you will know how rough/dangerous your area is,.. but I would guess that your food and water will be your most vital and most needy things to stock up on first,.. without these the security wont matter
When it comes to stocking up, all you can do is one tine at a time,.. are you able to put up a water butt? whats your storage like? if you dont have a lot of space then concentrate on high energy foods, .... you best bet is to do your research and read through the forums, ...and ask if you dont know, you will always get your answer

Everyones got kitchen knives, so thats your security. Food and water is my main concern

RE: hi frm north manchester
Hello and welcome from londonistan
As a fellow city dweller that lives in a shit hole i would say like highlander start on food and water because without it everything else is useless.
Then branch out after that into weapons,medical,comms,etc,Read the threads on this great site and you will learn a great deal,Theres plenty of info on here and some knowledgeable people on here that have helped me greatly
