Island Emergencies
Responding to emergencies on a small island is different than a mainland city due to limitations in services and limitations in operating hours. But Gabriolans are a dedicated bunch, and the island is full of community members who step up to help their neighbours, and strangers, when needed. But preparing what and how you can in advance is always best!
