If you are struggling for gift ideas for older family and friends this Christmas you are not alone. Older relatives are notoriously hard to buy for at Christmas and often receive the same unremarkable gifts over and over.
It is, however, possible to make a real difference in their life with your choice of present this year. Consider the peace of mind you can give your loved ones with a Lifeline Alarm.
Personal Alarms for Older People
Lifeline Alarms work through the wearable MyAmie Pendant, which is pressed after the alarm wearer has had a fall or feels unwell. The pendant can be worn around the wrist or the neck, with both attachments included alongside the alarm.
The pendant comes alongside the Lifeline Vi Alarm Unit, which can be installed by the alarm user or a loved one. The unit is simply plugged into the existing telephone socket and a power socket, with the telephone being connected to the alarm unit via the adapter provided.
When the red button is pressed on the pendant or alarm unit, an alert message will be sent to our 24/7 Response Team. They will try to communicate with the user over the alarm’s loudspeaker system before contacting their emergency contacts and, if required, the emergency services.
Your gift of a Lifeline Alarm in December will give both you and your relative the safety and security they need all year round. Help will literally be just one click away – all day, everyday.

VAT Exemption
Lifeline Alarms are exempt from VAT. As long as customers meet the criteria set by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) there is no need to pay any VAT when the alarm is ordered. To qualify for VAT Exemption alarm users will need to have a long-term illness, terminal illness or a disability.
