Why every woman needs a SOUNDHERO personal safety alarm.
We're so excited to bring you our very first Soundhero blog!
We're going to talk about anything and everything in women's safety but with a fun spin on things! But before we move ahead, let's start with how we got here!
Soundhero was founded by me, Lauz. I'm a woman who's also a mother, a daughter, a sister, a friend and a colleague.
When wanting to step outside my door to exercise before or after work, I did so with a sense of fear. There were a few quiet streets I'd need to go through before I got to the populated tracks, which always made me hesitant. Yeh, I had my phone, but how else could I help protect myself? It was in a moment, I realised that carrying a personal safety alarm and a safety whistle with me, was a great way to empower me to feel safer. And from that, SOUNDHERO was born!
The Soundhero Collective team truly believe our SOUNDHERO personal safety alarms are the best personal alarms are the best around (as we often get told so!). We have a range of both USB and battery operated models and our USB model includes the unique 'movement activate' mode, which allows you to set the alarm at an entry point e.g. door, window sill, where it will automatically activate if it's moved. It's working for you when you're asleep!
Our alarms are light, discrete and can be taken with you anywhere and everywhere (I never leave home without them, as I have them attached to my keys!). They start at a range of 130+ DB and they all have a flashing strobe light when activated, working in a way to deter threats and attract attention. They also all have a torch light function that you can use anytime, and let me tell you, this light is impressive in the dark!!!!!
Now, I've just mentioned that you can take your SOUNDHERO anywhere, and I really mean ANYWHERE (on a side note, they're TSA approved!).
They're ideal for your walk home, your train or busy ride to and from work, your daily walk or jog, that hiking or camping trip and the trip to the park with the kids. They're so great for so many places, many places that it'd probably never occur to you that it could come in handy (I mean, we all hate a public restroom right?!).
Did you also know, a SOUNHDERO personal alarm is also a fabulous tool for children? Give them to your child when shopping or at the park - should they lose you from their site, they can simply activate the alarm to help unite ASAP. Our personal safety alarms are so easy to use, and a child can very easily be taught how to use one.
On that note, till next time ...
You're safer with a SOUNDHERO!
