Technology that protects. Design that includes.

We create innovative public and personal safety solutions with inclusion at the core, ensuring that everyone, especially those most vulnerable, are protected and heard.

Equal access to 999 for everyone

Many people may struggle to make a voice call in an emergency, whether due to medical conditions, dangerous situations, or physical obstructions. That is why we built TapSOS, an app that allows users to contact emergency services with a few simple taps.

TapSOS is now the first and only government-accredited 999 app that connects users to all four UK emergency services.
