This is not about the Alexander Technique but is an idea that all of us would be wise to take note of and act upon.
The ambulance service is promoting the ICE ( In Case of Emergency ) campaign.
ICE was conceived by a paramedic, who realised that in an emergency he usually had access to a patient's mobile phone but had no idea which people in the phone's address book would be the ones he needed to contact.
The paramedic realised that it would be good if there was a nationally recognised scheme set up, which the emergency services could use to contact next of kin and other appropriate people quickly, so he created ICE (In Case of Emergency).
He proposed that we should all list our important contact names under ICE in our mobiles. If there's more than one contact, just list them as ICE1, ICE2, ICE3 etc.
It's a really simple idea to implement and could perhaps save lives and reduce distress, so find your mobile and enter your nearest and dearest under ICE, now.
