Background

We urge the Government to require all public places, such as cafes, restaurants, shops, businesses and schools, to have first aid boxes which contain EpiPens and allergy medication, as we believe allergic reactions are a life-or-death situation.

Additional details

Millions of children have clinically diagnosed food allergies and millions of adults may be still awaiting NHS allergy testing but cannot access testing due to backlogs. We believe medication must be accessible on hand at all places..
