Autism · Identity-first throughout

You can hear everything. You just can't answer right now.

SafeCard Alert is the only medical alert designed from the ground up for autistic people. Not adapted. Not retrofitted. Built with the National Autistic Society, from the first line of code.

In a life-threatening emergency, always call 999 first. SafeCard Alert helps responders help you.

Why it exists

Oliver McGowan was 18. He was autistic. He died because the right information wasn't available.

His death in 2016 led directly to the Health and Care Act 2022 and the Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training now required across every NHS trust and social care provider in England. The training creates awareness. SafeCard Alert provides the individual information that turns that awareness into the right action — for this person, in this moment.

A meltdown is not aggression. A shutdown is not refusal. Non-speaking is not unconscious. Your profile tells responders exactly what is happening and exactly what not to do — before they have to guess.

What other alerts give a responder

"Autistic" on a wristband. No context. No instructions. No person.

What SafeCard Alert gives them

"I can hear everything you say. I'm not refusing — I've gone non-verbal. Do not restrain me. Give space. Call my carer."

What SafeCard Alert does

Built for this. Not adapted. Built for this.

Every feature in SafeCard Alert was designed with neurodivergent people and their carers — not retrofitted from a system that wasn't designed for them.

AAC communication board

  • 94 pictogram tiles across six categories — tap to build a sentence, tap to speak World first
  • BSL symbols included. 40+ languages. Captioned for Deaf visitors and sound-off use
  • Nothing plays automatically — you control when it speaks

Your sensory profile

  • Light, noise, touch, smell, taste — your specific triggers, in your own words
  • What calms you. What makes things worse. What to do before a meltdown escalates
  • Separate sections for different contexts: hospital, police, school, sport

Voice profile builder

  • Speak naturally — SafeCard structures your profile. No forms, no typing World first
  • Built for autistic people who find form-filling overwhelming or impossible
  • You review and confirm every field before it saves. Nothing changes without you

Linked carer profile

  • You and your carer both carry linked profiles — a world first
  • If something happens to your carer, responders see immediately that someone depends on them
  • One-tap private call to your carer — their number and address are never shown

Medication reminders

  • Configurable reminders for every medication — dose, frequency, timing, and instructions
  • Alerts sent to both the member and their linked carer
  • Separate from emergency medication information shown to responders — the carer gets reminders, the paramedic gets the clinical facts

Secure document vault Coming soon

  • Upload and store any document that matters — powers of attorney, deputyship orders, DNACPR decisions, advance care plans, hospital letters, EHCPs, Individual Support Plans, school healthcare plans, and anything else your loved one needs with them
  • Documents travel with the person — accessible to the right tier at the right moment, never left in a filing cabinet at home
  • AI-assisted extraction reads uploaded documents and pre-fills profile fields — every field reviewed and confirmed before it saves
  • Identification photo upload — a recognisable photograph of the person, their belongings, wheelchair or mobility aid — directly strengthens the missing person pathway
  • Encrypted storage · tiered access · you control who sees what
Why this matters

The gap between what a responder knows and what they need to know — that gap costs lives.
