Self-Help Hub

The right knowledge at the right time can change the course of an allergy journey.

Allergy Awareness Week 2025

Understanding a new medical condition can be overwhelming, and navigating the process of seeking diagnosis and specialist care can feel complex.

That’s why we’ve created the Allergy Self-Help Hub. It’s your first stop for understanding allergies, preparing for the journey ahead, and equipping yourself with the tools and knowledge to navigate the process. With these resources, you’ll be ready to make the most of your interactions with healthcare professionals and ensure you get the support and treatment you need.

Could it be allergy?

If you suspect you’re experiencing allergic symptoms, or if an existing medical condition is worsening and you think an allergy might be the cause, use our symptoms checker. It can help you determine whether allergy could be at the root of the issue and whether you should seek support from your GP.
