We are an official partner of MedicAlert UK
If you have been diagnosed with vascular EDS and join Annabelle’s Challenge, your membership includes a free MedicAlert UK subscription for the first 12 months saving you £36.
In an emergency, receiving appropriate care for your medical needs can save your life. Making sure that those caring for you have access to your vital information means they can make the right decisions, without a delay.
MedicAlert's service is the most comprehensive and complete medical ID service in the UK, to protect you when you need it most.
Medical IDs hold your most vital medical information, keeping you safe when you cannot speak for yourself in an emergency. They are most commonly bracelets or necklaces, worn on your pulse points for easy identification by first responders taking care of you.
MedicAlert IDs have the internationally recognised symbol of healing to alert medics to its purpose. On the other side, your most vital conditions are engraved alongside your membership number and our 24/7 emergency helpline, so your full digital medical record can be accessed if needed.

“We joined MedicAlert UK in 2013, shortly after Annabelle’s diagnosis of vascular EDS. Her bracelet provides us with peace of mind in the case of a medical emergency, which could happen at any time living with this condition."
