Last year I made some cards up to take to Spain using the information on the NAS website. I've just done some new ones for our trip to France.

I just printed the phrase onto card and cut up - we didn't need them last year but it was handy to have them on us just in case!

Taken from the NAS website:-

NB. I have something similar in a plastic wallet made for credit cards - I can't speak anymore - so usually use an App on my iphone to communicate - but these are a good back up for when the darn thing runs out !!!
