Online Petition to Improve NHS Allergy Services

A new website has just gone live run by the National Allergy Strategy Group (NASG) which is an alliance of the professional organisation BSACI (British Society for Allergy and Clinical Immunology), the patient charities, Allergy UK (AUK), The Anaphylaxis Campaign (TAC) and the Allergy Alliance (AA) and industry partners.

The NASG has worked, with others, to highlight the need for allergy services; the inadequate care available for allergy patients at all levels in the NHS and to improve NHS allergy services.

Within their new website they are looking to create an online petition to acknowledge the lack of NHS allergy services and the inadequate care received by millions of patients living with allergic disease; and call for action to implement the recommendations of independent national reviews including the Commons Health Committee, that more allergy consultant posts and allergy trainee posts be created, priority be given to commissioning of allergy services and for improved knowledge of allergy in primary care

Please do sign this petition yourself and tell your friends and famillies about it too.

The website is at http://www.nasguk.org and the petition in on the 'Get Involved' page.
