Happy New Year 2021

1/1/2021

Happy New Year 2021
Me and my small team at You ID Me wish each and every one of our customers a very happy new year ahead.

I'm purposely not going to make this message long or fill it with 'ra ra'; there's quite enough of that around. It might just be me but I can't  quite bring myself to 'chime' with it at the moment.

I'm writing this at 08:50 on New Years Day and it's clear that across the UK  'the situation' remains very challenging for many of you; our customers and members, with tier 4   restrictions in place in many areas  of the country.

However nor will I allow pessimism to mar this  New Year wish to you.  If hope is anything then it isn't simply  'potential'; it's a forward-thinking force; it's kinetic; movement;  energy.

So  when I say Happy New Year I sincerely wish for that positive energy for you and for your loved ones and I wish for it to be long-lasting; to be abundant in all areas of your life - your health, your happiness, your relationships, your career, your finances. Let it permeate every area!

Now  whilst all that may come across as somewhat philosophical, that's okay.  The start of the year is a great time to be philosophical isn't it?

So I'll keep it brief and add three quick thoughts: -

"Hope walks through the fire. Faith leaps over it." - Author unknown.

"This is not a full stop, this is a comma [...]"   - Bishop Rose Hudson-Wilkin, Britain's first black female bishop.

And one of my personal favorites that I've 'stolen' from Abraham Lincoln   and selfishly adapted to my own personal circumstances many times over the years... You can fill in the last word 'blank '  of President Lincoln's  quote below to suit yourself. I'm sure he'd be fine with that!  Btw  in the original the last word was 'country'  which may still be apt.

"The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty. And we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new we must think anew. And act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves.  And then we  shall save our ___________."

Happy New Year for 2021 and beyond.

Take care and thank you for reading.

Face Mask Exemption Splash - A New Feature  on You ID Me

17/10/2020

Comments

 
Picture
A new tool that assists those exempt from wearing face coverings when challenged in public has been launched by the You ID Me emergency ID and alert service.

The 'Face Mask Exemption Splash' displays a special message on any device to confirm that a member is officially exempt from wearing a face mask / covering in public.

Company MD Lee Cunningham said "It helps diffuse uncomfortable situations where people are unfairly challenged - sometimes quite aggressively - for not wearing a face covering whilst they're out and about in public.

It  works by quickly demonstrating to others that the person is officially exempt  from wearing a face covering   due to a  medical condition.   It's compatible   with   any mobile device   - without the need for downloading an app, "
You ID Me face mask exemption splash page for mobile desktop and other devices
Face mask exemption splash on a mobile device
"The tool is free to use for our Platinum Plan members who can    choose to leave the face mask exemption splash on permanently or use it only when they plan to venture out in public eg. for shopping  trips or other outdoor pursuits. 

A simple toggle switch is all it takes to switch the splash on or off; users just log in, choose  their setting. Done."

Who can use You ID Me's  face mask exemption tool?

​HMRC have provided good guidance on the law around face covering exemption. In short  if  you have a physical or mental illness or impairment, or disability or where putting on, wearing or removing a face covering will cause you severe distress you can be exempted. 

As a result many members with condition  such as asthma, COPD, cystic fibrosis, anxiety as well as hidden disabilities carry one of our combined     face mask exemption / medical ID cards.    So our new tool can be greatly beneficial for them.

The new face mask exemption splash can be used now by You ID Me members on the Platinum Plan.  A table comparing You ID Me service plans is  here.

How to keep emergency ID cheap and effective

19/7/2020

Comments

 
In this short video  which came about by accident really, I explain why I wear one of our premium silicone emergency medical alert bracelets. - despite them only being £9.99 plus shipping.

I also explain how in a real life emergency situation how such a simple bracelet can give paramedics or first responders all the vital ID and information they need to be abe to treat me quickly and effectively - straight to ANY mobile device plus, how the system can alert my wife to let her know I have a problem.

But  in addition to this, rather than just say "Hey wife, your husband has a problem..." the system has the capability of sharing the contact details of the first responder so that she in turn can contact them to get the very latest  updates on what has happened, my  condition, my whereabouts and what's happening next.

You ID Me is the only emergency medical ID  and alert service that does this. We think you will agree that in an emergency  this can change what happens next for the better.

Thanks for reading and watching the video and, if you fancy one of these silicone bands head on over to: -

Take care. Stay safe.

Emergency Number Field Change

12/7/2020

Comments

 
When a Platinum Plan  emergency ID profile is accessed an  emergency services number   is presented 'behind' a speed dial button on the screen of the  device being used to view the profile. 

Historically it wasn't possible  for users to amend this number.

Members  are now able to update the "Emergency  Services Number"  field   within their profile.

This can be useful for those living in other countries or those planning to  travel abroad  that wish to enter the local emergency services number  for the country they are visiting.

Ahead Solutions logo
Our parent company Ahead Solutions UK  has earmarked a stock of anti-bacterial hand sanitizer  for You ID Me customers.

As people have raced buy these products, the shelves for hand sanitizer sprays and gels in many shops and stores   across the UK have been left empty. Many who would really benefit  from these products have  had wasted journeys as they've traveled from store to store.

Please note
This product contains a substantially   
higher percentage of alcohol than cheaper, standard hand sanitizing gels found in supermarkets and pharmacies throughout the UK, which typically contain 60 - 70% alcohol.
You'll need to enter your You ID Me  number to be able to buy this product so please have this handy. 

Click   here  to be taken to the Ahead Solutions  store page set up for You ID Me members only.
