Now my question is - could I add anything to this list? Things that would be needed over the survival of say - 3 months if needed?

I haven't included food on the list, so I would also like to ask - what type of foods should I stock?

Any information will be very grateful thank you!
I apologise if this is posted in the wrong section.
Cash is needed because the room also doubles up as a weather bunker.
