What is Forest Linkline?

Forest Linkline is a 24 hour emergency monitoring service, provided by the Forest of Dean District Council offering round the clock access to a trained operator at a push of a button. We can lighten the load whether you:

are in need of assistance recovering from illness or injury
are living or working alone, in an isolated area
are a victim of crime or domestic abuse
simply want reassurance to feel safe and confident in your own home

How does it work?

An alarm unit is plugged into your telephone socket, which links to a personal pendant that can be worn around your neck, wrist or clipped to clothing. When the button is pressed:

A call is triggered to the 24 hour monitoring centre
Trained personnel will reassure and assess the situation
Make a call to one of your nominated contacts or the emergency services if necessary
With a push of a button, help will be on its way to you!

We also stock 'Vibby', an advanced fall detector that can be worn around the wrist like a watch that automatically contacts the monitoring centre should the wearer take a fall.

Protecting you and your home

Our team can also fit a police approved key safe on the day of your alarm installation, providing a secure way for assistance to enter your home in an emergency.

The only mechanical key safe in the UK to be Police Approved
Rigorously test to be as secure as your front door
Passcodes can be regularly changed to ensure you remain in full control of who can access your property
Eliminates the need for additional keys, keeping your home secure

Why us?

A personal service tailored to individual needs
A professional, friendly and experienced team
Over 30 years' experience in keeping our clients independent and safe in their own homes
