We’re excited to announce our new partnership with Medical Tracker - the UK’s leading ‘Digital Accident Book’ for schools.

By combining that with our Anaphylaxis Kitt service, we’re enhancing our joint mission of making protection and policy proactive, rather than reactive.

Any food can trigger anaphylaxis, but some are more likely to do so, particularly in school settings. For this reason, food allergy training and anaphylaxis protection should be a priority. This article covers food allergy statistics in children, the top 14 food allergens, and how schools can prepare for anaphylactic emergencies with spare adrenaline pens.

In case you haven’t already seen this wonderful story across all of our socials, or in the local press - Finn, a four-year-old boy who lives with severe allergies, raised funds through a sponsored bike ride to get his local school an Anaphylaxis Kitt!

Clifton College, a leading co-educational public boarding school in the city of Bristol, now have seven Anaphylaxis Kitt installed across the 20-acre school site, which is home to 1,300 students aged 3-18 and more than 600 members of staff.

Following the death of 8 year old Benedict due to a severe allergic reaction at school, mum Helen has worked tirelessly and published The REACT report - releasing groundbreaking statistics, and uncovering the lack of allergy safeguarding in UK education.

Billie-Jo, a mathematics teacher from a prestigious UK boarding school, experienced a near-fatal allergic reaction and required treatment from three adrenaline pens using the school’s Anaphylaxis Kitt. This is now the second time one of our Kitts has been used, and the story is a truly eye-opening one.

For the fourth instalment of our Allergy Interviews series, I chatted with someone actually with very similar allergies to myself: 21-year-old Nathan, who is allergic to all nuts, sesame and soya.

For the third instalment of our Allergy Interviews series, I chatted with 19-year-old Tee Houghton - otherwise known as ‘Allergies In Bold’. Tee lives with a range of allergies from environmental factors such as dust, animal dander and pollen to foods such as shellfish and also exercise-induced anaphylaxis.

We discuss the critical importance of understanding and using adrenaline pens in emergency situations, particularly for individuals dealing with severe allergies and anaphylaxis, and introduce our Anaphylaxis Kit Subscription Service.

For the second of our new Allergy Interviews series, I had the pleasure of speaking with allergy mum Steph and her eleven-year-old son, Will, who lives with multiple severe allergies, including pollen and flaxseed, as well having eczema.

The days are getting shorter, colder and wetter, so to brighten things up, we wanted to share the story of how we partnered with Cotham secondary school in Bristol, who proactively installed five Anaphylaxis Kitts across their site.

Ralph Allen School, a large secondary in Bath, revolutionises its’ allergy policy, improves access to critical training for staff and enhances allergy awareness by replacing their current allergy provision with Anaphylaxis Kitts.

After a well deserved easter break, I wanted to reflect on our amazingly successful Q1 at Kitt Medical, where we achieved some incredible milestones:

Today we started sending out the first wave of Anaphylaxis Kitt contracts to schools and academies across the country...

We gave a talk to Luton Council Schools all about understanding allergies, the risks they present to schools, and how to mitigate against them.
