Help us be there for the allergic community and their families this Christmas & New Year

The classic elements of Christmas can be far from fun and festive for the allergic community, bringing extra challenges and worries at this seasonal time of year. It's not just the festive food that poses a risk, with allergens finding their way into a variety of products and environments including advent calendars, gifts, decorations, supermarkets and even a cheeky kiss under the mistletoe.

And with a growing number of people at risk from severe allergic reactions and anaphylaxis, our services will be relied upon more than ever before...

Give a Gift Today

A gift today could give vital support, clinical advice and reassurance to the allergic community and families who turn to us. We promise to use your kind donation wisely and with care during the festive season and beyond. From toddlers to teens, to twenty-somethings and those in their twilight years, we are here for advice and positivity during every milestone and challenging time of someone's allergy journey, when needed.

- £10 could fund one telephone call with our national Helpline team, giving urgent advice and reassurance to parents and carers concerned about the safety of their child

- £25 could go towards our AllergyWise Teaching Programme, which provides free, informative courses for families, healthcare professionals and schools

- £50 could help create a safe environment within schools, creating resources to provide schools with the knowledge and expertise to support severely allergic children and educate peers and school staff

Thank you. We really couldn't do what we do without your support and friendship.
