Living with a food allergy

Posted 1 year ago

We're here to help whilst on campus and in Bath

Don’t assume that a food will be safe to eat without checking. Some food and drink, including spirits, sauces and ready-made meals, may contain allergens. Ingredients can also change from the last time you had it.

Communicating your food allergy

Try not to feel uncomfortable asking these questions as they are important to your safety. Ask direct questions to make sure people understand the severity for you and that you get accurate information.

Communicating with friends is also important. This will make them better understand how they can help you manage your food allergy.

It is important to speak to the restaurant every time you eat out, order a takeaway or get food delivered.
