Why teach children about food allergies?
Food allergy affects at least 4-7% of
children, with 20% of allergic reactions occurring in
school.* And because some can be life-threatening, it's
essential that teachers and classmates are prepared. *European
Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI)
In addition to providing peer-tested, ready-to-use lesson plans for teachers, the workshop helps children learn about the allergies that affect them or their friends. The child-centred, hands-on approach ensures that the key messages will be retained long after the lesson has finished. So you and your pupils will be better equipped to prevent a reaction in the first place, and if the worst happens? They'll know exactly what to do.
