Knutsford Medical Partnership

Knutsford Lions have teamed up with the Knutsford Medical Partnership to re-launch ‘Message in a Bottle’.  This is a free scheme set up in the UK by Lions Clubs to help the emergency services by providing a known location for essential information in the event of an accident or sudden illness – particularly for people living on their own.

A special bottle is provided with a form to allow essential information to be recorded (e.g. any key medical conditions, or medication issues and where tablets etc. are kept).  This information is kept in the bottle inside the fridge.  Stickers are provided which should be displayed on the INSIDE of the front door (so that the emergency services know there is a bottle on the premises), and on the front of the fridge (so they know where to find it).

All four sites of the Knutsford Medical Partnership and Knutsford Community Hospital as well as Knutsford Lions hold a stock of bottles – if you would like one please contact knutsford.lions@gmail.com
