Who
Needs MedicAlert®
Famous Faces
A famous face can do wonders for the image of a charity and statistics prove that one in three of the population has a need for a MedicAlert® Emblem. Consequently most celebrities - if they are not members themselves - will almost certainly know of somebody who has already enrolled in our life-saving system. In some cases we are fortunate enough to have affected these celebrities so much that they agree to endorse us. During the past few years we have gained the support of many celebrities including Claire Rayner, Dr Hilary Jones, Cheryl Baker, Ian Botham, Simon Biagi, Dawn French and Anthea Turner.
Vince Hill, as an entertainer, is constantly on the road and travels worldwide. He takes comfort in the fact that his personal and medical details are held on our central database and that this information is accessible 24 hours a day, from anywhere his profession may take him.
Valerie Singleton has a severe allergy to Penicillin. She has been a member of MedicAlert® for many years, having been advised to join by her GP.
Dr Mike Smith endorses the work of the Foundation and encourages his patients with hidden medical conditions to wear our emblems
