Anderson and Morrison shelter
well the two main types would be the Anderson shelter ( a small house shaped structure made of corrugated iron ) and the Morrison shelter ( a 2 mtr by 4 ft by 2 ft for those who didn't like sleeping out side during the day its a table/bench and by night its a structure with crossed iron wire and wood edges ) the people who cant afford these items would sleep in the public shelters these would mostly be underground train stations.
They had only what the people took into it with them.
The Anderson Shelter was designed by William Paterson and Oscar Carl Kerrison in 1938. It was named after Sir John Anderson, who was responsible for air raid precautions during World War II, and it was Anderson who initiated the development of the shelter.

Anderson and Morrison shelter
The Anderson Shelter was the first shelter that was given in World War 2 but i don't really remember the other air raid shelter
A Morrison Shelter was issued to people who didn't have a garden and therefore couldn't use an Anderson shelter. It was a protective cage that could be assembled inside a house and would protect from falling masonry etc. but not from a direct hit.
The Londoners could have Anderson or Morrison Shelters set up at their homes to take shelter in during the Blitz. There were public places for them to use and the Air Raid Wardens helped everyone get to a shelter.

Anderson shelters were deemed unsafe for indoor use and some people didn't want to have to use public air raid shelters therefore Lord John Fleetwood Baker created the Morrison shelter (named after an MP, Herbert Morrison) for indoor use in normal houses.

anderson shelters
I wasn't born when World War 2 was on, but i think my grandpa had an Anderson Shelter.
Air raid shelters were built specifically to serve as protection against enemy air raids. However, pre-existing edifices designed for other functions, such as underground stations (tube or subway stations), tunnels, or cellars in houses, basements in larger establishments, and railway arches, were also utilised. These structures, being below ground or almost so, and being especially strengthened to support the weight of the buildings above them, were therefore particularly suitable to safeguard people during air raids. A commonly used home made shelter was known as the Anderson shelter which would be built with beds, in the garden to protect from air raids.
