Food Allergy Awareness Training
Price: Only £17.50 + VAT
Allergies occur when the body’s immune system reacts to a usually harmless substance as though it is harmful. Why this happens isn’t clear. However, most sufferers come from families that have a history of allergies or related problems. Every year, the number of people with allergies is increasing, so having an awareness of potential allergens and why they can be harmful is becoming more important, particularly if you work in the service industry.

Our Food Safety Level 2 courses go hand in hand with Allergen Awareness as they provide detailed information on food safety and hygiene practices. They are industry-specific, so they are more relevant than generic courses, and should be completed by anyone who handles food.
For supervisors and managers in the food industry, our Introduction to HACCP Level 2 course provides an in-depth overview of Hazard Analysis and the management of critical control points to ensure food remains safe for consumption from farm to fork.
