Message in a Bottle

Lions Clubs Message in a Bottle is a simple but effective way for people to keep their basic personal and medical details where they can be found in an emergency on a standard form and in a common location – the fridge.

Message in a Bottle helps emergency services personnel to save valuable time in identifying an individual very quickly and knowing if they have any allergies or take special medication.

Paramedics, police, fire-fighters and social services support this Lions life-saving initiative and know to look in the fridge when they see the Message in a Bottle stickers, supplied. The initiative provides peace of mind that prompt and appropriate medical assistance can be provided, and next of kin/emergency contacts can be notified.

Where can I get the bottle?

Bottles can be obtained from many outlets locally including health centres, doctor’s surgeries (including Alresford), chemists, the Community Centre and The Lions Stall on our monthly Craft Market. We continue to look for new venues so if you think we are missing one please let us know.
