Who would have thought that a piece of jewellery could potentially save your life? If you suffer from an illness or allergy and were to collapse, how would the paramedics know that you need, or need to avoid certain medication? If you wear a Medic Alert Bracelet, there would be no need to worry.

Thankfully the only thing I know I’m allergic to is lemons and whilst the effect they have on me isn’t pleasant, it certainly isn’t life threatening! However, my Grandad had diabetes, so if had fallen into a diabetic coma, one of these bracelets could have given the paramedics the information they needed to treat him quickly.

This site is new to the UK and allows customers to chose their own style of jewellery. It’s possible to choose a charm bracelet rather than a traditional bracelet, or even a necklace or watch instead. Once the metal (or if you’d prefer a just a strap) is chosen, each is then individually sized, which is great for people like me with skinny wrists!

As there’s no set words or phrases to use, you can choose how much information you feel is necessary to be engraved on to your personalised item.
