Personalised ID Cards in Kirkwall
Personalised photo ID for Kirkwall’s public services, college, harbour, cruise and visitor teams and festival volunteers on Orkney Mainland, delivered in 2–3 days.
Kirkwall personalised ID
Orkney’s main town and administrative centre
Kirkwall is a town of about 10,020 people on the northern coast of Mainland, Orkney. It is the administrative centre of the islands, home to the headquarters of Orkney Islands Council and NHS Orkney, and the main campus of Orkney College.
Public services, health teams and the college all need personalised photo ID, with a clear name and role for staff who work across the islands. Kirkwall is also a port, with ferries to Aberdeen and Lerwick and nearly a kilometre of quay, and about 140 cruise ships call at Kirkwall and Stromness each year. Harbour staff and the guides who meet cruise visitors need ID that is easy to read.
We personalise every card with a photo, name, role and department, and can colour-code cards for staff, contractors and visitors.
Every card is printed in full colour on both sides, so the back can carry an office number or emergency contact.
Cathedral, museum and festival
St Magnus Cathedral stands at the heart of the town, next to the ruined Bishop’s and Earl’s Palaces. The Orkney Museum, in 16th-century Tankerness House, has internationally important prehistoric, Pictish and Viking collections, and the St Magnus International Festival is based in Kirkwall each midsummer. Guides, stewards and festival volunteers can all wear personalised passes.
