It isn’t a bold statement to make that ‘personal alarms are life savers‘ it’s a mere fact! These wonderful devices have helped to save lives with their ability to alert other people or even disorientate an attacker, allowing for those vital seconds required to make an escape.

However, personal protection alarms can be used for more than just attack alarms… During the winter weather, paths and roads become slippery, making it a hazardous, treacherous journey underfoot for our elderly residents to even reach the local shops. This is when a personal alarm can be used to help alert passers-by if someone has slipped and requires assistance.

There are arguments that personal alarms may seem a bit small and awkward for our elderly readers to use, therefore we have in-store the Chaperone Nightingale Personal Alarm which has no small pins or cords to pull – just squeeze the sides together and that’ll set off the 120+ dB ear piercing siren.

If you’re worried about an elderly relative during the winter weather then make sure they carry around a personal alarm – if they do lose their footing then you know that help is at hand.
