Use a lanyard or medical information form to let people know you are vulnerable to COVID-19.

'Give me space' lanyard

During the height of COVID-19, some people wore lanyards to let others know they were vulnerable to infection. You might prefer to still use a lanyard on occasion, especially when in crowded spaces. A lanyard asks others to avoid coming close to you, thereby reducing the risk of passing on an infection.

Order a complete lanyard with a printed card using the form below. Or, if you already have a lanyard, you can print the 'give me space' card to use with your lanyard.

Medical information form

It can be helpful to keep your important medical information in one place. Use this information form to record essential information that healthcare professionals might need to know in an emergency.

Choose from a single or double-sided version. Download and print at home, or order a printed copy from us.
