Helpline
Our key three asks outlined cost effective ways the NHS can be reformed to address the most pressing challenges facing the allergic community today. These asks were:
- An allergy nurse and dietitian at primary care level for each UK health region to ensure those living with allergies can access care from a specialist clinician. Specialist allergy services should be offered universally and not dependant on where you live.
- A national register to consolidate patient data across the country, unifying health data for patients and health workers so allergy diagnoses can be easily tracked. Accurate data is vital for knowing what services need to be commissioned and to ensure the safeguarding of people with allergies.
- The removal of prescription costs for those living with allergies to address the additional costs people face when managing their allergies.
Our manifesto aimed to create a more equitable system with timely, accurate, and effective patient care; we believe in a healthcare approach that recognises allergy as a chronic condition and the serious impact of living with an allergy. Transforming how allergy services are delivered will undoubtedly improve the quality of life for millions of people in the UK.
This manifesto articulated our vision for a better future for those living with allergies, and formed the core of our present advocacy work.
Since the election, we have continued to campaign for better access to allergy nurses and dieticians for each integrated care system, and for a National Allergy Register.
