Message In a Bottle

Lions Message In a Bottle scheme is a simple idea designed to encourage people to keep their personal and medical details on a standard form and ina common location - the Fridge. Whilst it is focused on the more vulnerable people in our community, anyone can have an accident at home, so this scheme can benefit anyone, including you. The Emergency Services are aware of the scheme and know to look for the bottle which then immediately helps them with their understanding of a patient’s health and medication and allows quicker and more accurate emergency care. It is anticipated that the bottles will become available in January in localdoctor’s surgeries’, pharmacies, dentists etc. Hopefully there will be displaysin various locations which will allow people to ‘help themselves’ – but if youdon’t see one just ask. They will also be available directly from the local Lions.
