Cycle Safety 2018 for Adults  and Children

31/7/2018

Comments

 
As I'm out running in the Rossendale area I often see small groups of children being trained or coached on road cycling safety. I think back to the time when I got into trouble from my own father for riding  two miles into town one Sunday afternoon with a friend. He was right to be cross; I did not have an ounce of road safety training.

Despite safety training, accidents will of course happen  and whilst hopefully the majority of these will be minor, some will  inevitably be emergencies.

As more and more people reach for their bike following the incredible win of the 2018 tour de France by Welshman Geraint Thomas it's a great time to consider cycle safety.
Here I talk about something Halfords won't offer you when you go to buy a bike, helmet and clothing... the Vital ID Sports ID band and in particular how You ID Me upgrades the band to include the winning You ID Me service - see www.you-id.me

In short, You ID Me is the UK's leading emergency ID and alert service which can be used by anyone who carries and emergency ID product. And we feel that with UK roads and the volume of traffic thereon, cyclists are without doubt in need of carrying emergency ID. 

How You ID Me works

A unique 12 digit ID is provided to people carrying emergency ID products (bracelet, wristband, necklace or identity card).

In the event of an emergency any first responder can input the unique ID number into the You ID Me portal using a smartphone, tablet or PC to retrieve all the ID carrier's vital information.

It's fast and no app is needed to use the system at any point.

The real power lies in You ID Me's ability to alert emergency contacts or loved ones that there is an emergency.

This is what Lee means when he refers to the Platinum Plan. Learn more about what You ID Me is here: 
https://www.you-id.me/what-is-you-id-...

Please do comment  and let us know your own experiences of cycling safety in the UK or about carrying ID when you are out cycling alone or as part of a group. 

​Until next time ^lc.

Highly Visible Emergency ID? Easily Located Hi Viz  Alert  Products

25/7/2018

Comments

 
I've always  thought about the importance of emergency ID being  easily visible.  And there is a kind of irony because hi viz is where it all started for Ahead Solutions owner of the You ID Me brand.

Back in 2012 I  gave notice on my full-time job  to  start the Ahead Solutions company on the back of a hi-viz invention I had created, which sold well at a the The Cycle Show at the Birmingham NEC.

Soon after I began supplying medical ID and   eventually created You ID Me, mainly due to having a couple of family members who needed more from their emergency ID products though also partly due to competition.

Wrist space s precious 'real estate'.  There are all sorts of products and inventions crying out for your wrists, which is perhaps in  itself the topic of another post... watches, jewellery, fitbits, sports  gadgets, pedometers, charity support bands   etc. etc.
Picture
I know through conversations with first responders  and ambulance staff that  in an emergency they'll generally check the neck and wrists of the person whom they are treating so almost any medical alert bracelet  should be found.

However when it comes to wallet cards  I  think that would benefit from having the ability to stand out somewhat.  That's why  we've created the  highly visible medical ID combo set  as an  offering to those that want a little more peace of mind.

What's good about this hi viz emergency ID is that the  set is condition specific.  So it's really clear and obvious - at a glance - to any first responder, paramedic or anyone from a medical team  looking at either of these medical alert products what the medical condition of the wearer/carrier is.

Of course anyone treating or looking after you in an emergency can  access all your vital emergency ID, contact and medical information by  popping your unique ID number into the You ID Me portal. And, if you are on  our Platinum Plan your emergency contacts can be alerted if you have an emergency and your ID bracelet or card is used to access your profile.

The listing has only been available for a few weeks and already there's been a great uptake; carriers of our high viz emergency ID cards don't always keep their card in their purse or wallet.  Some are wearing on lanyards   at work or when they go somewhere new or unfamiliar, so that it would be  immediately obvious if  the worst was to happen.

So, high vis emergency ID. Bright idea or  a flash in the pan? What do you think?  Please leave a comment  or suggestion or  your own experience of your own emergency identity product/s being located easily  or not.

Stay  cool in this hot UK weather...  winter will be here before we know it  and we'll all be grumbling that it is too cold!

You ID Me Partnership Opportunity Announcement

25/7/2018

Comments

 
You ID Me partnership opportunity initiative announcement
We're excited to announce  that You ID is now open for business to other UK based vendors of personal ID products.

The exciting You ID Me partnership opportunity allows other emergency ID businesses to benefit from the growth and success of  You ID Me's emergency ID and alert  system by providing free and paid for  subscriptions to  end users  ordering their own ID products.

Just as important, the initiative means that there will be an increase in the  number of people  carrying  'rich' emergency  ID, contact  and medical information, which can greatly help a first-responder make the right decisions in an emergency situation.

This helps ID carriers   to go about their lives with a heightened  feeling of confidence.  Families of emergency ID carriers  are  positively impacted too...

Close relatives and emergency contacts are often  comforted  knowing for example that in the event of an emergency they can receive an instant alert - straight to their mobile phone with no need for and special app  -  to let them know that their  loved one has a problem.

Additional comfort is provided by the fact that  the first responder's details may also be shared, allowing family members   to make fast and direct  contact with  the very person looking after their loved one.

Interested in the opportunity?

If you are a UK vendor or emergency ID or medical ID products , you can learn more about this exciting opportunity by visiting the You ID Me Partnership  page in the first instance.

Expanding Medical ID Bracelet Hit  with Customers

25/7/2018

Comments

 
A quick and raw video recorded by Lee in one of the You ID Me  workshops this morning following a call from a very happy customer who had purchased a StoMo Expanding emergency medical ID bracelet...

Expanding medical alert bracelet features

The StoMo  expanding  medical ID bracelet is available in two colours and three sizes, 17cm, 18cm and 19cm in a black and a silver / chrome, both pictured below.  It can be ordered blank for you to engrave or you can select from one of our off the shelf engraved offerings  - which includes a range of 'condition specific'  engravings.

This is a robust medical ID alert bracelet and the fact that it expands means that the 19cm bracelet  really is ideal for larger wrist sizes.

The links and the main enclosure of this  bracelet are highly polished beautifully; it's a great looking bracelet to say that it is a medical  identity bracelet!

We only took delivery of this line in June and already are looking  to restock such has been the demand.
