Who it’s for

Who uses Acticheck?

Much more than just an alarm for the elderly and disabled

Alarms for the elderly and disabled, as well as carers and lone workers, are so important in keeping our loved ones safe while they keep their independence.

Our market-leading personal alarm system provides SOS alarms, fall detection, monitoring check-ins and much more.

Independent living

People living alone

For people living alone who want the reassurance that help is always at hand, without wearing something that feels like a hospital alarm.

At times you choose, the band gently vibrates and a single tap confirms you are fine. If you don’t respond, help is called, like a neighbour noticing the curtains haven’t been opened.

  • “I’m OK” wellbeing checks
  • SOS at a squeeze
  • Discreet design

Falls risk

People at risk of falls

Automatic fall detection means help can be called even if the wearer can’t press a button themselves.

Because it’s waterproof and worn in bed and in the shower, protection carries on through night-time trips to the bathroom, when many falls happen at home.

  • Automatic fall alerts
  • Waterproof
  • Worn day and night

Active retirement

Seniors

Seniors have never been as young as they are today, often retiring with 20+ years of active life left.

No matter how resilient they are, no one is invincible. The life-saving wristband is a personal monitoring and alarm system that fits with a modern, vigorously independent lifestyle.

  • 1 full year of battery
  • No daily charging
  • SOS and fall alerts

Living with disability

People living with disability

No matter your physical ability, you should be enabled to live your best possible life.

As long as you can wear the wristband and squeeze the buttons, you can share the peace of mind of knowing help is at hand, just when you need it.

  • Squeeze-to-call SOS
  • Automatic fall alerts
  • VAT relief eligible

If you have a disability or long-term condition, you may be eligible for VAT relief, which you can claim when you order online.

Caring couples

When one half of a couple becomes less able, it can lead to a loss of independence for both partners.

Sometimes just having a single wearer can give a carer and their loved one time apart without losing contact in case of emergency, but having a wristband each means that no matter who needs it, help is at hand.

  • Time apart with confidence
  • Alerts to family and friends
  • A wristband each

Out and about

Active people out and about

Home, garden or wherever life takes you. The base unit’s coverage reaches up to 200 metres, so you’re covered at the end of the garden or in sheds and garages.

Pair the wristband with a smartphone (£108/year) and protection comes with you on walks and days out.

  • Up to 200 m home range
  • Smartphone pairing
  • Waterproof

Working alone

Lone workers

Increasing numbers of people work alone, thanks to automation in factories and offices, the need to work across time zones and pressure of work.

Acticheck is an effective way of calling for help should there be a medical or security emergency.

  • SOS at a squeeze
  • Automatic fall alerts
  • Discreet design

Pet care

Pet owners

If you are a pet owner, you’ll know the bond between you and your pet is special. They give you friendship and unconditional love, and the last thing you would ever want to do is harm them.

But if you had a sudden accident or incident, how long would it take for your pets to get the care they need?

  • Automatic fall alerts
  • Missed-check alerts
  • Alerts to family and friends

More people Acticheck helps

Whatever your situation, there’s a way Acticheck can help.

People with long-term health conditions

Daily “I’m OK” checks and predictive analytics give early warning of changes, alongside SOS and fall alerts.

Movement readings are compared with your usual activity pattern. A meaningful change, like a disturbed night’s sleep or an inactive day, prompts an email update, not a call.

If you have a disability or long-term condition, you may be eligible for VAT relief, which you can claim when you order online.

  • Predictive analytics
  • “I’m OK” checks
  • VAT relief eligible

Family members who live far away

Get peace of mind with real-time alerts and an activity dashboard, without needing to check in constantly yourself.

If help is needed, Acticheck automatically phones the family and friends you choose.

  • Real-time alerts
  • Activity dashboard
  • Automatic alert cascade

People who are deaf or hard of hearing

Alarms that rely on talking through a speaker aren’t suitable for everyone. Acticheck’s wellbeing checks use a gentle vibration and a single tap, and calling for help is a squeeze of the buttons.

  • Vibration prompts
  • No voice interaction needed
  • Squeeze-to-call SOS

Homes without a landline

No landline is required. Plug the base unit into power and follow the plain-English guide: set-up takes just 5 minutes and no technician visit is needed.

Common questions

Can I buy Acticheck for a parent or relative?

Yes. Many people order Acticheck for someone they care about. Family and friends can be the people Acticheck phones if help is needed, and they can follow real-time alerts and the activity dashboard.

Do I need a landline?

No landline is required. Plug the base unit into power and follow the plain-English set-up guide. It takes about 5 minutes and no technician visit is needed.

How often does the wristband need charging?

The battery lasts a full year, so there is no daily charging and no need to take the wristband off.

Can I wear it in the bath or shower?

Yes. The wristband is waterproof and pacemaker safe, so you can wear it in the bath or shower as well as in bed.

Does it work outside the home?

The base unit covers your home and garden up to 200 metres away. Pairing with a smartphone (£108/year) extends protection when you are out and about.

Can I get VAT relief?

If you have a disability or long-term condition, you may be eligible to buy Acticheck without VAT. You can make the declaration when you order online.

Is a monitoring centre available?

Yes. As well as alerts to family and friends, you can add the Fallback Call Response Service for £4.75/month.
