Frustrated at the lack of allergy services?
Join Allergy New Zealand in making submissions to the District Health Boards.
As part of Allergy Awareness Week, 18-24 May, Allergy New Zealand will be presenting a submission to each of New Zealand’s 21 District Health Boards.
The purpose of these submissions is to raise awareness of the substantial burden that allergies, as one of the leading forms of chronic disease, imposes on New Zealanders as a whole.

The full submission will soon be available on our website. In the meantime if you have any queries please feel free to contact us.

Are you a health professional?
Initial diagnosis of a potentially life-threatening allergy, in particular, can be an anxious time for patients, and it is through access to accurate information and support that they are able to manage their allergy successfully. This can help reduce anxiety.

Monthly tip
Are you allergic to dust mites?
Then make sure you mite-proof your bedroom. This is where you spend about a third of your life, and just as you may love snuggling into your bed, so to do dust mites. It's lovely and warm, and there are lots of your skin flakes for them to feast on!
Start by investing in dust mite covers for your mattress, duvet and pillow. Then try and wash your bedding on a hot wash once a week.
For more tips, visit our page on dust mites here.
