Anaphylaxis Awareness Week
1st – 7th October
Anaphylaxis is a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. This is an opportunity to educate people about Anaphylaxis, the triggers and how to respond in an allergic emergency.
There are varied activities and educational days that are organised to help support those at risk of anaphylaxis and those who care for them.
Some of the activities to get involved are to learn about anaphylaxis, common triggers and how to recognise signs and symptoms. Make or update an anaphylaxis emergency plan.
