Allergy School Resources
Use Allergy School’s free educational resources to improve awareness and understanding of food allergies, so that all children feel included and are able to participate fully in and out of the classroom.
Begin with lessons plans, and then add in films, additional resources and assembly packs to teach children about the importance of food allergies in a fun and engaging way.

More awareness will help to keep children with food allergies safe.
“Awareness of food allergies among the whole community is vital. Children with food allergies are often excluded from events, because of a general lack of knowledge and understanding of the issues they face.
They can also experience bullying because their allergy can make them appear different to other children. The lessons and assemblies Coram Life Education & SCARF has developed with Natasha’s Foundation, work together to help everyone learn about the challenges and risks faced by children with food allergies – focusing on facts and, crucially, on developing empathy and caring, attitudes. We are delighted to be part of this great work.”

“We are thrilled to have worked with Natasha’s Foundation to support the launch of Allergy School.
At The King’s Foundation, we give young people the chance to learn from nature to improve their understanding of our relationship to the planet, and boost their general health and wellbeing.
We are hugely supportive of the Natasha Foundation’s work to encourage everyone to be more allergy aware, and look forward to seeing Allergy School embraced by students and teachers across the country.“

“Natasha’s Foundation is teaching such an important message and it’s an honour to be able to help spread that awareness with the use of puppets. Puppetry is a great tool to grab the attention of children. Puppet characters create a fun and safe environment where serious issues can be discussed with a light-hearted tone.”
