I have chosen to raise funds for the Natasha Allergy Research Foundation. Founded by Nadim and Tanya Ednan-Laperouse following the tragic death of their daughter Natasha to a severe allergic reaction in 2016, the vision of the Foundation is to make allergy history. Their goal is to prevent and eradicate allergic disease, starting with food allergy, creating a world that is safe for all individuals. They fund food allergy research, the only charity in the UK dedicated to do this, and campaign to improve policy / law and raise awareness of the dangers of food allergy. Please visit their website at www.narf.org.uk to learn more and follow them on social media @NatashasFoundation (Insta and Facebook) @NatashasLegacy (Twitter).
Their successes already include achieving the first major change in allergy legislation with Natasha’s Law being implemented in 2021 – ensuring that full ingredient labelling and allergen information is included on all pre-prepared food to go (‘pre packed for direct sale’). In May 2022 they will be announcing their first major allergy research project – to enable the first treatment for food allergy to made available to everyone in the UK via the NHS. As Nadim and Tanya say: “We want to ensure the needs of people living with allergy are met in a meaningful way and to offer a real hope that will change the lives of all those living with this life-threatening disease.”
I have the personal experience of family members who have food allergies and the impact it has on their lives. I understand the urgent need to carry out research and am confident NARF with the recent and forthcoming developments / announcements that they will make good use of any money I can raise.
