Exactly One Year to Go, Your Simple Guide to the Digital Switchover 📣

We are now exactly one year away from the completion of the UK’s digital switchover on 31 January 2027.

While the country moves from old analogue lines to a digital network, our mission remains the same: helping you lead an independent life with very little change.

We want to ensure your "safety net" is ready for the future so you can stay confident and active.

Can I wear my accessory in bed? 🛌

• Pendant, Wristband, or Falls Detector: These can be worn while you sleep, but there is a slight risk of accidental activation. To avoid false alarms, we recommend placing the device on your bedside table within easy reach—especially if you get up during the night.

• GPS Watch or GPS Pendant: Night-time is an ideal opportunity to recharge your wearable device. Place it on charge beside your bed so it’s fully powered and easy to grab if needed during the night.

• Stay Protected Overnight: Keeping your device nearby ensures you’re always prepared, even while resting.

Winter Protection for Loved-Ones on the Go

Don’t let the winter chill limit your loved-ones independence. While icy paths and shorter days can feel daunting, staying active is the best way to maintain your confidence and well-being.

Our Out and About Watch is designed to be a discreet safety companion that fits seamlessly into your current lifestyle:

* Automatic Protection: Built-in fall detection ensures help is requested immediately, even if you can’t press the button yourself.
* Stay Connected: Features two-way speech and 24/7 monitoring to keep you and your family feeling secure.
* GPS Tracking: Your location is automatically shared if the alarm is triggered, so help can find you wherever you are.

This small device makes a big difference, giving you the freedom to keep exploring your hobbies and local trails with total peace of mind.

As the colder months arrive, the risk of falls can increase due to icy conditions, shorter days, and bulky clothing, which can create concern for you and your loved ones.

Blue Monday 💙

Blue Monday can feel a little heavier than most days, but a small gesture can make a big impact on a loved one’s confidence and well-being.

Here are three simple ways you can offer reassurance and support today:

* A Simple Check-In: A quick phone call or a visit can be the key to a big change in someone’s day.

* Encourage Gentle Activity: Suggest a short walk or some low-impact exercises.

* Declutter Together: Offer to help with a small, manageable task around the house, like clearing a shelf or organising a drawer.

Let’s look out for one another this Blue Monday.

Thank you for trusting us to be your "safety net". Here’s to an even more active and independent 2026! 🥂

Have you noticed a deterioration in your elderly loved one's health? ❤️

Spending quality time with family over the festive period often brings us closer, but it can also be a time when we notice small changes in a loved one’s health or confidence.

Seeing a deterioration in someone you care about can be difficult to handle, and it’s natural to feel unsure about the best next steps.

We’ve put together a helpful guide on the 5 signs to pick up on so you can feel confident in getting the right support at the right time.

Making 2026 the Year of Giving Back! 🌳❤️

At Red Button, we believe in a slight change having a big impact, not just on your life, but on our planet and our community. That's why we are proudly continuing our commitment to two vital partnerships in 2026!

• For the Planet: We are proud to partner with more trees. For every package you purchase, they plant one tree in their forest! This collaboration helps us reduce our carbon footprint and become more environmentally aware.

• For the Community: We are excited to support Age UK, who are dedicated to helping older people stay independent, active, and valued through crucial services, information, and advocacy.

Follow us for updates throughout the year on both of our partnerships!
