ICE
Following the disaster in London East AnglianAmbulance Service have launched a national "In case of Emergency ( ICE)" campaign with the support of Falklandswar hero Simon Weston and in association with Vodafone's annual life savers award. The idea is that you store the word " I C E " in your mobile phone address book, and against it enter the number of the person you would want to be contacted "In Case of Emergency".
In an emergency situation ambulance and hospital staff will then be able to quickly find out who your next of kin are and be able to contact them. It's so simple that everyone can do it. Please do. Please will you also forward this to everybody in your address book, it won't take too many 'forwards' before everybody will know about this. It really could save your life.
For more than one contact name ICE1, ICE2, ICE3 etc

I've had this email from a number of sources. How will it save my life? I agree that it will make identifying my body and informing my next of kin a lot easier, but will it actually save my life?

It doesn't necessarily say it will save your life, but it will help in case of an emergency, whatever that may be!
