The Natasha Allergy Research Foundation, the UK’s food allergy charity, was launched officially in June 2019 by Nadim and Tanya Ednan-Laperouse after their daughter Natasha died aged 15 from a severe allergic reaction to sesame.

Through campaigning, education and research, the charity’s mission is to make allergy history, in particular food allergy, and improve the lives of the millions of people in the UK living with food allergies.

The charity is the only allergy charity dedicated to medical research. We want to understand what is causing the dramatic rise in allergic disease - and develop ways to prevent, treat and ultimately eradicate it.

Starting with food allergy, we want to create a world that is safe for everyone.
