How does everyone carry their emergency info?

**manjay** · 26-01-2008, 11:14 PM

I keep getting in a panic as I don't always take my bag when I walk to school and have to admit that on occasions I have forgotten my emergency contact stuff!! I always have my phone which has the numbers but I wanted to make sure that I had the correct docs.

I have seen on here before that some of you use little cards like the ones on the bromley site so I have just made up four sets of these so I have no excuse for not having them . I have put all the info on the cards, laminated them, punched a hole and put them on a keyring. I am really chuffed. They are quite small and will be much easier to carry around than what I had before.

Hubby has taken my camera fishing with him (very optimistic he will catch something!) so will have to be after the weekend!

I have an emergency contact list I carry in my purse all the time... and I carry a changing bag with permissions for emergency treatment signed by the parent (I adapted them from ones in files on here).

The Bromley ones are great too and much less bulky - good idea Amanda!

What a good idea! I usually only carry my phone with contact numbers but I might make some of these too if you don't mind me pinching your idea.

I love this idea!
So simple and user friendly!
Laminator at the ready!!!!

I too only currently have emergency contacts in my phone when I go out.
Not for much longer!!!!

I carry all my emergency details in an A5 folder but it is a bit bulky especially in summer when you aren't always taking bags/coats etc

Really like this idea Amanda - just another thing to add to the list of jobs to do

Great idea. Carolyn and I have made a form from A4 paper that folds into 4 it has contacts, and permission (list) on it and when folded it fits into small photo album . We have this in our changing/ outings bag.

I have a small hardback book with all my contacts in for easch child I have on my books, also contacts numbers in my mobile phone too, thats an excellent idea though Amanda might give it a try xxx

This is what i do, i also give the parents one with my details on in case they have an accident, i give them one for their keyring and a credit card sized one to put in their purse/wallet.

i have a print out of all contack details inside a cupboard and a smaller one in my purse & in phone ,in home telephone book, i dont take permission forms out feel i could get permission over phone , but think if my battery when flat on mobile i would need a back up and if i was ill at home it would be handy to ahve the numbers to hand

fingers crossed not needed
