We offer a short anaphylaxis training course tailored to anyone who needs/wants training to deal with severe allergic reactions.

Anaphylaxis – or anaphylactic shock – is a potentially life-threatening reaction to one or more of many ‘triggers’. Common triggers include:

• everyday foods:
  • nuts, including peanuts;
  • fish and shellfish;
  • milk and/or eggs;
  • certain fruit;
• medicines, such as:
  • NSAIDs (including aspirin);
  • antibiotics;
  • general anaesthetic;
• materials and fibres:
  • contrast dyes;
  • latex (rubber gloves and prophylactics).
• or it can even be caused by an indeterminable trigger, which we call idiopathic anaphylaxis.
