MedicAlert UK

MedicAlert are the first and only medical ID charity in the UK and have been trusted for over 60 years. Medical IDs allow first responders to have all the information they require instantly in the event of an emergency, with a 24/7 emergency helpline linking to someone's full medical record. We believe that everyone deserves to live with confidence and our vision is a world where no medical condition or allergy limits a person's confidence, dignity, independence or safety.

We believe that everyone deserves this security and peace of mind which is why we provide protection programmes to people who might otherwise have to go without, such as those who face financial hardship or who are overwhelmed by the cost of managing their health conditions or allergy.

One of our charitable programmes is our 'Early Start Programme', providing children with free membership and a MedicAlert ID up to their 10th birthday. The peace of mind that parents get from this is invaluable. MedicAlert also have a 'Goodwill Programme' which provides discounts and sometimes complementary membership and IDs to those who need it most.

MedicAlert also provide the Herbert Protocol, a dementia safeguarding programme designed to help find people living with dementia when they go missing. The Herbert Protocol is completely funded by MedicAlert and contains information about a person's daily routines, past places of interest and emergency contacts, allowing police to have all the information they require instantly.

With trust in every ID, we can give everyone confidence in every moment!
