Allergies

More than 40 per cent of the UK population are affected by allergies. The numbers are rising, yet few national resources are allocated for research into the causes or cure. Allergy UK, formerly the British Allergy Foundation, is a national medical charity established to increase understanding and awareness of allergy, to help people manage their allergies, to raise funds for research and to provide training in allergy for healthcare professionals. It provides information, advice and support on most allergies and chemical sensitivity. Allergy UK also publishes a large number of leaflets and factsheets covering various allergic conditions. It will be holding Indoor Allergy Week on 10 to 14 November.
