Helping You Create AllergyWise® Learning Environments

Keeping children and young people with allergies safe during the time they are in your organisation demands proactive strategies and concrete actions. Navigating the complexities of food allergen management requires whole organisation awareness. In order to support this, we have compiled a comprehensive set of guidance and recommendations for every sector or organisation that works with children and young people.

This guidance grounded in legislation, regulatory requirements and best practice addresses key areas such as staff training, communication, policies and procedures.

Schools have a legal duty to make arrangements to support pupils with medical conditions including allergies. The most serious allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) usually begins within minutes and can be life-threatening. Sadly, there have been cases of fatal anaphylaxis happening when a child is at school. Lessons learnt from these tragic cases emphasise the need to have robust allergy management systems in place.,

By adopting a holistic approach to allergen management organisations can create a safer, more inclusive environment that fosters trust and loyalty among all stakeholders.

Each term, we’ll send you a carefully curated update packed with practical tools, expert guidance, and real-life examples to help your school or setting confidently support children and young people with allergies. Whether you’re updating your policy, planning a trip or training your team, our newsletter has you covered.
