Reviews

Norrie’s tracker is also proving a real comfort for me - as I don’t have to panic if he doesn’t return home on time from his wee walks. I now realise he was getting a seat when out and watching the world go by! [review of waterproof, long battery GPS]

I use this tracker mainly to keep in touch with mum. She gets anxious when I go out and I can call into this and make sure she is ok, or she can press the button to call me. I like the longer battery life, as I don't always remember to put it on charge every day. [review of waterproof, long battery GPS]

My husband had lost confidence in going out since he got on the wrong bus once. Now we have the tracker he is getting out to his dementia choir again, taking the bus by himself now he knows that I can see him on my phone and he can get me if he needs help. [review of pendant, 48 hour battery GPS]
