Anaphylaxis Awareness Week 1-7 October 2025
Over 30 years ago Anaphylaxis UK was set up with the principle objectives of preventing deaths from food-induced anaphylaxis and improving the quality of life for those living with serious allergies.
Back then so little was known about severe allergies. People had little to no information and what was available was inadequate. The mission of Anaphylaxis UK, from day one, was to change that by providing credible and accurate information, training and support. And that is exactly what they’ve done for more than 30 years.
And now, here they are 30 years later approaching their 7th Anaphylaxis Awareness Week… and with your help - to make AAW2025 bigger and better than ever!
The Hidden Battle with Allergies
Back in 2024 Anaphylaxis UK used Anaphylaxis Awareness Week to launch their new #TheHiddenBattleWithAllergies campaign and were overwhelmed by the response. It’s a topic that sadly resonated with so many of you.
Whilst, much great work has been done over the years, by Anaphylaxis UK and other leading allergy charities, to raise awareness of the seriousness of allergies and anaphylaxis, there is still much work to be done to tackle the often ‘hidden’ emotional challenges that come with living with serious allergies.
With that in mind, Anaphylaxis UK has chosen to continue to focus on #TheHiddenBattleWithAllergies and for Anaphylaxis Awareness Week 2025 we will be focusing on the importance of reliable and accurate information and support to tackle the emotional impact of living with allergies.
