Can my item be engraved?

Yes. We engrave on the reverse of the steel medical alert plate.

Up to 3 lines with maximum of 25 characters per line

The engraving plate is there for the essential, critical information paramedics, first responders and potentially even members of the public or schools need in an emergency. In the event of an emergency, the universal medical alert symbol on the front of your bracelet will alert medics to vital information. The plate is easily flipped over to reveal the engraving.

We suggest you include:

1. Your name
2. Any CRITICAL medical conditions, allergies or drugs that might affect how you are treated in an emergency (such as blood thinners)
3. An ICE contact number - preferably a mobile

ICE stands for 'In Case of Emergency'. Emergency Services are also trained to look for ICE contacts in your phone so make sure it's in there too. Both android and iPhones will allow access to ICE contacts even when the phones are locked.

Who is my bracelet named after?

SOPHIA JEX-BLAKE (1840 – 1912)

Sophia Jex-Blake was one of the first qualified female doctors in Britain and a leading figure in the education and professionalisation of women. In the 1870s it was very difficult for women to find a medical school that would allow them to study for a medical qualification. In response to her struggle to qualify as a doctor, Sophia co-founded the London School of Medicine for Women. Following its success she set up the Edinburgh School of Medicine for Women in 1886. Along with Elizabeth Garret and Elizabeth Blackwell, Sophia was a key pioneer of women in medicine during the Victorian period.
