Welcome to what allergy?

Eating out, going for dinner with friends, buying lunch and shopping for groceries; all these things create daily challenges for anyone with allergies and intolerances. I hope this website will provide you with ideas, inspiration, answers and a whole lot more.

My delicious #DF, #GF lunch today

You’re hungry, you’re busy and you need to grab some lunch. So what do you have if you can’t eat dairy, wheat, gluten, tomatoes, celery, eggs or nuts? Try this delicious idea for cold quinoa salad with watercress, sweetcorn, mackeral and nori flakes.

The day I used my EpiPen for the first time!

Have you ever had an anaphylactic attack? Have you ever actually used your EpiPen? If you haven’t, and have ever been scared of trying, you should read this, and promise me one thing – you’ll use yours if you are in any doubt! Please?

Use your EpiPen!

If you have a serious allergy to anything you will most likely carry an EpiPen in your bag at all times, but have you ever actually used it? Are you terrified about that prospect and think you just might get better naturally without bothering 999 and wasting the drugs? My advice, if you’ve having an allergic reaction and are getting short of breath, call 999 and use your EpiPen!
