Condolences

Dr Jerry Chunn passed away on the14th April aged 89.

As patron of the Allergy Awareness Association from 1982 to 1995 he was instrumental in laying the foundation of Allergy New Zealand as it stands today.
He was a fellow of the American Academy of Allergists and a Fellow of the Australian College of Allergists. He also ran his own allergy clinic in Auckland (Parnell Allergy Clinic) for 11 years in the 80's and 90's, in that time treating patients from all over New Zealand. The board, staff and members of Allergy New Zealand offer their deepest sympathy and condolences to Jerry's family and friends.

Honorary Ambassador Sir Peter Charles Leitch QSM became involved with Allergy New Zealand because of his grandson, Ruben's, severe food allergies. His support and generosity over the past few years is immeasurable.

Allergy New Zealand has acknowledged this by launching The Leitch Family Award for Food Allergy Research.

The organisation has been fundraising for food allergy research and currently has one project underway so far.

To donate to the research fund, go here.
