The Agency's school council network has carried out a study of children's attitudes to allergies. The study aimed to find out more about young people's views and awareness of food allergies. It highlighted a need to raise awareness and educate people about allergies at an early age.

The school council is a network of nine schools across England. The main purpose of the network is to listen and understand the views of children and young people, especially in relation to food.
