The Slightly Anxious
Members Club
When we decided to set up Slightly Anxious, we wanted to do more than just sell things via Amazon, we wanted to provide a service that would help our customers in a way that was more than just transactional. We wanted to build a community of like minded people who were Simply Anxious!
What that means, in essence, is people who are concerned about the increasingly risky situation in the UK and the world at large and while we do not think in any way that society will collapse, the apocalypse is coming or there will be Zombies, we do think it is highly prudent to prepare for potential outages of utilities and a requirement to stay at home or equally, evacuate with minutes to spare.
We don't think its scaremongering to get people to think about being prepared. Every government in Europe is asking their citizens to do so, we're just making it easier and getting you better informed.
If you read the articles and our blog posts you really will be better informed than most. We also provide you with a free emergency plan to help you organise yourself. The products we offer will help you survive pretty much the majority of disasters we can expect to experience on this island, so you can enhance your otherwise negative experience by just buying kit, reading useful information and utilising the emergency plan, which we strongly recommend that you get.
But there is more! And like with pretty much everything in life it will cost. But we've made it as cheap as we it can possibly be - just £24 for an annual membership of the Slightly Anxious Club! That's a ridiculous £2 per month for an extra service that will take your disaster preparedness to a new level, think peace of mind in the knowledge that if the worst comes to the worst you will have access to the a VIP level of disaster preparedness.
What do you get for your rather measly amount of money - the equivalent of a gin and tonic in a London hotel bar!
Let me list them:
-
Free copy of The week the house went quiet - our graphical explainer of how you can achieve everyday tasks when your utilities have stopped working. A comic book guide to surviving an emergency.
-
Crisis Monitoring - we are constantly checking the news and as you will see in our blog posts commenting on the state of the nation and its potential for crises, if you become a member you get this straight to your email inbox. We also provide you with access to our crisis monitoring page where you enter your postcode and it provides you with up to the minute news from all the local feeds regarding potential crises.
-
Free use of the recipe generator/meal planner - if you read the Curated Food page you will know that the recipe generator/meal planner takes the number of people, the type of meal and not only produces some delicious recipes based on tinned food but also supplies a shopping list to make life easier
-
Enhanced Emergency Plan - we provide you with one for free on the Your Emergency Plan page, but this one is the VIP version. Not only do you get the opportunity to upload photos so no-one will ever not know where your stopcock or fuse board is and how to work it, but we provide a map of your local area so if you do have to leave and the internet is down you can still navigate. All of this plus all the valuable information found on the emergency plan, are provided printed and laminated in a folder for a small fee. This is what the professionals would use if they were members!
-
Free copy of the Emergency Guide - which usually retails at £14.99, as you can see on the Emergency Guide page, this is a comprehensive guide to how to survive the emergencies most likely to hit the UK. There is no selling of products and no affiliate links. This could be all you need to survive, the rest of what we sell is what you need live during a crisis. This comes in a .epub format so you can read it on your Kindle or similar e-book reader, the perfect choice for an emergency as the battery lasts up to a week.
-
We will remind you of your twice yearly checks around the house for food, water, charging torches and chargers and checking all your vital household components like checking your stopcock.
-
We will provide you with Members only posts about new products and services that will enhance your crisis experience
-
If enough members want it, we will provide a Community Chat Room so people can share their experiences of preparing for emergency situations
All of this and probably more, as we haven't thought of everything yet and we are always open to anyone's ideas, so do come forward and make suggestions.
And yes, for the ridiculously cheap price of £24!
There hasn't been such value available in the United Kingdom since when your parents where children, a fiver really was a fiver, they were called Marathon, you got pick 'n' mix at Woolworths and comedians told real jokes not political monologues, I could go on but its time for my meds and a nap.
