MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE

Our  Lions  driven  "Message  in  a  Bottle",  is  a simple   plastic   container   which,   when   given out,   contains   two   stickers   and   a   personal health  form.  You  simply  complete  the  form, which  has  details  of  your  name,  address,  doc-tors  name  any  medication  you  are  taking,  and medical  history.


Once  completed  the  form  is placed   in   the   container   and   the   container placed  in  the  refrigerator.  You  then  put  one sticker  on  the  front  door  and  the  other  on  the fridge door.In    the    event    of    an    emergency    arising,

attending  paramedics  will  automatically  look  in the  fridge  and  will  access  your  medical  history which   greatly   speeds   up   any   diagnosis   and treatment.   Although   we   do   not   keep   any records,   we   believe   that   this   process   has contributed  to  the  saving  of  many  lives,  above all,   we   sincerely   hope   that   your   container never  has  to  be  used  in  earnest  but  it  is  wise to be prepared just in case.

THE PLUGSTER

Do you, anyone in your family or anyone you know struggle with pulling plugs from sockets?

If so Otley Lions Club may be able to help with our new “Plugster®”

The Plugster® was designed by Ian the Inventor, as he had become aware of how difficult the moulded electrical plug is to remove from a socket. Looking at the disabled aids that were available and seeing how their design created some problems he started to think about how to solve this issue and the Plugster® was born.

They are easy to fit by simply pushing the plug pins through one end, wrapping it around the plug and then pushing the pins back through the other end.
