Sports Guardian is a trading name of The ID Band Company Ltd. which has been supplying affordable, personalised medical IDs and accessories since 2010. We set up the company after looking for ID products ourselves. We found that most of the products available were either of inferior quality or were not easily updateable, or we would have to go through the hassle and delays of ordering from the States, or that we were going to be "ripped off" with the post and packing charges.
We wanted to create a better way The ID Band Company has partnerships with hospitals, medical organisations and charities and is the supplier for the official parkrun bands, tags, cards and merchandise in the UK.
