We are looking for volunteers as customers for the exercise of the Imatra emergency center

In practice, we practice the establishment and operation of a regional preparedness center. The exercise simulates a situation where a long-term power outage causes inconvenience to the residents of Imatra. The electricity is out, the apartments are getting cold, there is no water coming from the taps. There are disturbances in the telephone traffic, the internet connection is interrupted.

Residents are instructed to arrive at the sports center, where various authorities and organizations offer their own help.

In order to be able to train, we need you as a training customer of the readiness center. You can arrive on the spot just by yourself - you don't need any special skills. We offer you a snack and the opportunity to get to know Imatra's new type of emergency service.

Register for the exercise from the following link:
