15mm Pre-Printed NHS Lanyard with Double Breakaway and Badge Reel (Pack of 100)

This is a 15mm NHS blue polyester lanyard fitted with a retractable badge reel instead of a fixed clip, so staff can pull their ID out to scan or show it, then let it snap back to their chest rather than swinging loose. It's pre-printed with the NHS logo and built for NHS employees and staff who need their identity visible and secure throughout a shift.

The reel and the breakaway

The reel itself is translucent NHS blue (Pantone 300) and carries the NHS logo front and centre, so a colleague or patient can identify staff at a glance even before they're close enough to read the card. It attaches via a metal trigger clip and the lanyard carries two black plastic health and safety breakaways as standard: if the strap gets pulled or caught on equipment, it separates cleanly at those points and clips back together afterwards, rather than staying snagged.

Need ID card holders too?

We stock a huge variety of ID card holders in a wide range of colours. So if you need a lanyard and ID card holder combination, chances are we have the right colour in stock that can be with you tomorrow if you order before 3 pm.

We also stock the NHS rainbow lanyard all year round. The ideal NHS staff lanyard for showing support for the LGBT+ community, as well as bringing a pop of colour to your work attire.

About the branding

Due to NHS branding guidelines, the full NHS logo can't be shown on this page but every lanyard in this pack is pre-printed with the full, genuine NHS logo in white, so it does conform to the NHS identity guidelines. What you see on the listing photo is a placeholder for licensing reasons, not what ships.

One more thing worth knowing before you order: this product is restricted to NHS organisations and payment has to come directly from an NHS organisation rather than an individual or a third party.

FAQs

Can anyone order this or does it need to be an NHS trust?

This product is restricted to NHS organisations and payment must come directly from an NHS organisation rather than an individual. This is to ensure the safety of NHS staff and patients across the UK.

If you're from an NHS organisation and have any questions about the ordering process, please feel free to get in touch.

Does the badge reel fully retract the card?

Yes, it's designed to pull out for scanning or close-up checks, then retract back so the card sits against the wearer rather than hanging loose.

What if we need a different colour or a non-NHS design?

This specific product is the pre-printed NHS blue design. If you need a different colour, breakaway count or your own branding instead, we have a lanyard for you. Explore our full range of lanyards and please get in touch if you have any questions.
