Hi! I'm Osian and this #FreeFromFortnight, I'm raising money for the Natasha Allergy Research Foundation. 

The charity's mission is to make allergy history.  As part of its work towards this, it is funding a ground-breaking clinical trial..  

If the trial is successful, it may mean lots of children like me can try immunotherapy treatment for our food allergies, regardless of where we live in the UK, because it won't be too expensive.  This treatment aims to teach our immune systems not to react so much to our allergens.  I hope I can try it so that, one day, I might be able to sit next to my friends who are eating ice cream/pizza/nuts/bread or other foods without worrying if I'm safe.  

Aside from cow's milk, I'm also allergic to wheat, egg, peanuts, tree nuts, lentils and buckwheat so the hope the Natasha Allergy Research Foundation is giving me for a future of food freedom is huge!

My brilliant Llantwit Fardre RFC Under 9's team-mates and I will be spending 2 hours at our next training session #TacklingAllergiesHeadOn.  We'll make sure we are practising our tackles constantly during that time and would love you to donate anything you can for our efforts!
