Hi all,

Just trying to finalise a lone worker standard and am looking for recommendations for personal alarms. I don't want one that sounds like a car alarm. the gas powered ones seem best and might just buy that few seconds to help you get to a place to safety. They are for a range of people from support workers to maintenance workers.

Thoughts??

As you say some personal alarms are more effective than others. Please the attached link scroll down to personal attack alarms. You'll see comments by Suzylamplugh trust on systems they favour.

I've recommended gas powered versions in the past.
