Hi everyone. I have mislaid my medical ID bracelet and need to buy another. Any recommendations for a supplier please? My issue is that I can't often fit all the medical information I need to on the tag due to space limitations.

you can get a medi care, you put your details in. in comes as a bracelet or a enecklace

Have you applied for the new Headway card. It is very good. Have you also got the green and white pot from the Lions Club = it lives in your fridge and has details of all your meds and medical needs. You put a sticker on your door and it tells emergency services to get the pot if you are unable to tell them your health issues.
