Mediwrap thermal blankets: Keep your family safe with these innovative blankets, used by the military and emergency services

Mediwrap

The first rule of breaking down is never wait in your car. It's a safety precaution that 67 per cent of Briton's avoid because the prospect of standing outside in the cold and rain is too much to bear.

To combat the problem, the RAC have teamed up with Mediwrap to offer their thermal blankets to the public for the first time. Priced from £8.99, Mediwrap is trusted by the armed forces and emergency services to keep people protected from cold, wind and rain.
