To try and stay safe in the blitz people....
People either bought Anderson shelters to put in there garden or bought Morrison shelters for there houses if they didn't have gardens, as only 20% of the public had gardens then. The Morrison shelters weren't very big so usually people had 2 if they could afford it! They could hold 2 tonnes of weight and only collapsed by 12 inches when put under pressure.
Also people turned off all the light so London wasn't visible to the Nazis, everyone was asked that if they were going out during the blitz to wear white clothing so they could be visible to other pedestrians and car users. The blitz cause a lot of accidents as all street lights, car lights and house lights were turned off, some of the accidents included; Car crashes, Getting run over by cars, Falling off of bridges and into ponds and even walking into each other and walls.
Hope this helps :]

Many families also participated in blackout measures, covering windows to prevent light from guiding enemy bombers. Additionally, they stayed informed through radio broadcasts and alerts, allowing them to respond quickly to warnings.
During World War II, the British people employed several strategies to stay safe from bombings, particularly during the Blitz. They took shelter in underground stations, designated bomb shelters, and even their basements.

During the Blitz, people in Britain maintained their spirits through a strong sense of community and resilience. They organized social events, such as dances and concerts, to foster camaraderie and distract from the ongoing danger. Humor and optimism were prevalent, with many using witty slogans and songs to uplift morale. Additionally, acts of kindness and solidarity, like sharing resources and helping neighbors, reinforced a collective determination to persevere despite the hardships.
During World War II, London was a dangerous place. The city was subject to a period of sustained bombing from the German Luftwaffe (air force) and so thousands of city children were sent to stay out in the country, where it was believed they would be safe. Country people opened up their homes to these children, taking them in for months at a time to provide a safe haven for them.

He would either seek refuge in the War Rooms, or stay in Downing Street, which had, I believe, a bomb shelter in the basement during the war. :)
London was about one third damaged thanks to the blitz bombing. London had to rebuild and they had to rebuild their economy. But London was not the only city affected. Many cities and homes had to be rebuilt or newly built. The country had to stay on rationing for ten more years while things were rebuilt and the economy could recover.
