What is the Allergy Management Fund?
The fund will provide you with three months of allergy management support from Dr
Helen Allergy* and the team of specialists including a Dermatology Nurse Specialist,
Psychologist, and Dietitians. You will receive a 1-1 with Dr Helen which will last up to
30mins. She will then support your journey within her closed Facebook group. You
will have access to all pre recordings from specialists plus invitations to join the talks
each month. You will be able to post questions in the group for the specialists to
answer and receive peer to peer support from families in similar situations.
