Cyril the Squirrel is allergic to nuts, so he knows what it's like for the one in 100 children across the UK who has peanut allergy. Cyril is the star of a quirky new video, 'The New Kid', commissioned by the Anaphylaxis Campaign (anaphylaxis is the term for a severe allergic reaction). He was originally created as the hero of a children's book by Lucy Warn, the teenage sister of a girl with severe nut allergy. The action takes place at Rosie's birthday party where Jack, who has nut allergy, has to watch what he eats as well as deal with the local bully, Ben, and put up with the excruciating dancing of Rosie's dad. Cyril does his best to help Jack watch what he nibbles and deal with nasty predators. The video, priced 15, which aims to reassure children who suffer from various food allergies, is suitable for ages five to nine. For copies contact 01252 542029 or www.anaphylaxis.org.uk
