Allergy N I is a local charity
formed in 2005, to support individuals and families with serious and potentially life threatening allergies by providing
education, information, support and campaigning on their behalf.
Allergy Support Centre – The first of its kind in the UK & Ireland
Our Support Centre in Antrim was officially opened on Wednesday 18 November 2009 by the Chief Medical Officer for
Northern Ireland, Dr Michael McBride, who unveiled a plaque and released 180 balloons. Each balloon represented
1000 children in the Province with allergies.
Additional speakers
were the Mayor of Antrim Councillor Adrian Cochrane-Watson and Dr Trevor Brown Consultant Paediatrician & Adviser
to Allergy N I. Antrim Grammar School String Quartet added to the enjoyment of the event
with their excellent musical skills.
The Centre is open Mon-Fri from 9am-1pm and at other times by appointment.
Anyone is free to call in and receive information, advice, and support to help them live safely with serious and potentially
life threatening food allergies. We do not provide medical advice.
The Centre will also be used for meetings,
workshops and other activities.
