Improved quality of life for people living with allergies

Mission

To raise awareness of allergies, provide support, and represent the interests of people living with allergies, especially children and their families.

Our Values

We value our reputation as a credible organisation with integrity, providing the latest internationally-validated information about allergies; and our staff, members, and volunteers, whose teamwork and commitment is essential to the success of our organisation.

Key Goal for 2005 - 2010

To build and sustain the organisation and its people including capacity, expertise, and resources in order to:

i) Develop and deliver programmes and services which are indispensable to key stakeholders; and

ii) Effectively represent the interests of the allergic population, particularly to address:

• the need for access to allergy services nationally 
• the need for an adrenaline auto-injector, EpiPen, to be funded through Pharmac for patients with anaphylaxis
• the need for clearer labelling of food and improvements in food safety across the manufacturing, hospitality and catering sectors of the food industry.
