Self-Help Hub
The right knowledge at the right time can change the course of an allergy journey.
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.
A-Z Directory
Whether you’re looking for information on specific allergic conditions, practical support services, expert-reviewed guidance, or helpful pages covering topics from diagnosis to everyday management, this directory makes it simple to find what you need quickly.
Do I Have an Allergy?
This section of the Self-Help Hub is designed to guide you through the process of understanding your symptoms and exploring whether an allergy might be the cause. It will help you recognise common signs, identify possible triggers, and understand what steps to take next, whether that’s managing symptoms yourself or seeking advice from a healthcare professional.
Getting a Diagnosis
Seeking an early diagnosis is key to managing allergies effectively and preventing complications. We provide expert advice on how to have a productive and positive conversation with your GP, along with detailed information on the allergy testing options available to help you through your diagnosis journey.
Living with an Allergy
Living with allergies and maintaining your quality of life is not always easy but it shouldn’t hold you back from experiencing life to its fullest. At Allergy UK, we’re dedicated to providing you with the support, resources, and guidance you need to navigate the challenges of living with allergies with confidence and resilience.
Our services
Our services go beyond supporting those impacted by allergies through our vital Helpline. We also have an in-house Clinical team consulting on more complex Helpline calls and offering free specialist clinics. Additionally, we provide translation cards and an Allergy UK approved product directory.
Allergy Alerts
Allergy Alerts provide free, timely updates on food recalls and safety issues related to food allergens. Subscribers receive email notifications tailored to their specific allergens, helping them avoid products that may be incorrectly labelled or contaminated. This service offers a simple, practical way to stay safe and informed while living with a food allergy.
Approved Products
Find products including bedding, cleaning supplies, air purifiers, personal care items, and more, each designed to reduce exposure to common allergens such as dust mites, pet dander, and pollen. Products bearing the Allergy Friendly Product Award™ or the Seal of Approval™ have undergone rigorous assessments to ensure they are unlikely to cause allergic reactions and may provide tangible benefits to those with sensitivities.
