Message in a wallet

Message in a Wallet is an emergency information service, based on the established Message in a Bottle scheme.

​

The new scheme provides users with a printed form on which individuals can record any medication, illnesses or allergies they may have, together with a contact name, in case they are taken ill whilst away from home. It also includes information about any dependent who is left at home or even a much-loved pet that may need looking after. The form folds up into a small plastic cover, designed to be kept in a wallet or handbag. Some other Lions Clubs have introduced the scheme in their areas.

​

It is ideal for the elderly, people with disabilities, walkers, lone walkers, carers, cyclists, motorists. The card is kept inside your wallet or handbag, and provides the emergency Services with a contact name and vital details of any illness or allergy you may have, if they are called to an emergency involving you.

​

Harpenden Lions Club are aiming to provide this service for at least 5,000 local people. You can obtain a form and cover for your personal use from local health centres or pharmacists that display a notice about the Message in a Wallet service.

​

There is no charge for this service
