One of the main challenges I experience with having a life-threatening allergy is travel. I LOVE to travel but my goodness it takes some planning when you have an allergy.
Epipens? Inhalers? Safe food? Contacted the airline? Contacted the hotel? Nearest hospital? Translation cards?
As I got older, I realised that there was very little information out there for travelling with allergies especially how to safely navigate airborne allergies on an airplane! What do you do if you have anaphylaxis at 35,000 feet?
Therefore, I decided to set up my own travel tips allergy group on Facebook to support others with travelling. I wanted to share the knowledge and experience I’d acquired from years worth of research.
The group is now a brilliant community hub which supports many families in travelling abroad safely.
It can be accessed by clicking here – we’d love to see you there!
