New Campaign sweeping the Nation
"ICE"
Following the attacks in London, East Anglian Ambulance Service has launched a national "In Case of Emergency ( ICE ) " campaign.
The idea is that you store the
word " ICE " in your mobile phone address book, and against it
enter the number of the person you would want to be contacted
"In Case of Emergency".
In an emergency situation ambulance and hospital staff will then be able
to quickly find out who your next of kin are and be able to contact them. It's
so simple that everyone can do it.
Please will you also email this to everybody in your address book, it won't take
too many 'forwards' before everybody will know about this.
It really could help the emergency services in doing their job. For more
than one contact name use: ICE1, ICE2, ICE3 etc.
