WHY ALLERGY SHOULD BE ON YOUR AGENDA:

FOOD ALLERGY IS NOT JUST YOUR CATERER’S PROBLEM

– On average there are 1-2 pupils with a food allergy in every class of 30
– 20% of severe allergic reactions to food happen to children when they’re at school
– The majority of allergic reactions happen outside the lunch hall
– Having a handful of staff EpiPen trained isn’t enough
– Think inclusion as well as safety
