Following the disaster in London

East Anglian Ambulance Service have launched a national In case of Emergency ( ICE ) campaign with the support of Falklands war hero Simon Weston.

The idea is that you store the word I C E in your mobile phone address book, and against it enter the number of the person you would want to be contacted In Case of Emergency.

In an emergency situation ambulance and hospital staff will then be able to quickly find out who your next of kin are and be able to contact them. Itís so simple that everyone can do it. Please do.

Please will you also email this to everybody in your address book, it wonít take too many íforwardsí before everybody will know about this. It really could save your life, or put a loved oneís mind at rest.

For more than one contact name ICE1, ICE2, ICE3 etc.
