Not winning but still a winner at The Allergy Blog Awards

Allergy Blog Awards

The Amazing Allergy Blog awards at the Malmaiisoon Manchester Piccadilly

I’m still buzzing from the Allergy Blog Awards on Saturday 25th February at the Malmaisson Manchester Piccadilly hotel. In my opinion everyone at the awards was a winner. Bloggers give their own free time to share their knowledge, experience, lessons learnt, recipes, hints and tips etc. and these blog awards were a brilliant way to reward and priase those who are going above and beyond.

I was proud to be there, to have reached the finals, and I was even more proud of the amazing bloggers who won. So big up to you all! We love you. Check out the Allergy Blog Awards Website for a fun down on the Allergy Blog Awards 2017 Winners.

Big congratulations to one of my favourite bloggers, who won Best Allergy Blog award for her son Callum who allergic to over 25 foods. Well done Intolerant Ghourmand.

This is me with the amazing winner of Best Allergy Blog - The Intolerance Ghourmand

Please support the Allergy Blog Awards

Please can I ask you all, bloggers, professionals, people with allergies and those who help raise awareness to support these awards. They were organised by Lynsay Edwards who blogs as Living with CMPA (Cow’s Milk Peanut Allergic).We want her to organise them again so we are now starting a charm offensive. So much work went into organising these awards and we all loved them so much. Let’s help Lyndsay make this happen again.

And thank you to everyone who supports miny and other allergy blogs. We do this for you and we love hearing your comments, news and thoughts on our blogs. Don’t be strangers. Come and say Hi!

New NEA blog post. Why is the East Coast missing from the Eczema Map Project?

Check out my latest post on the blog of the National Eczema Association. I write about the Eczema Map Project and, in particular, what it’s already taught me: that either I have a lot to learn, or there’s not much happening on the east coast of the United States, which has traditionally been the power center for academia, industry, and medicine. Why is that?

Allergy Blog Of The Year – Sponsored by Asda Free From our headline sponsor

Allergy Blog Of The Year Award category is for the allergy blog that has gone above and beyond and has helped people with their advice and support in regards to allergies.
I've been nominated for the UK Blog Awards 2017

This is exactly why I blog. To share things I’ve learned, help others and raise awareness of what it’s like living with with allergies, eczema and asthma.

It can be lonely place but I want to help people see that having life threatening allergies should never stop them doing what they want to do.

It’s constant and never goes away but you CAN embrace challenges and live a healthy and positive life.

You just have to be VERY organised, plan ahead and ALWAYS go prepared.

A bit like an SAS spy, ready for that allergen to get you at every corner, never letting down your guard.

I also like to rant when I see injustice or unkindness shown to anyone with allergies, eczema or asthma. If you know something is wrong or dangerous don’t stand by and let it happen. Fight!

Thank you all those who stand and fight beside me. You know who you are. And thank you to all my readers over the five years I’ve been blogging. It’s been so much fun and I still have so many ideas for blogs so please keep reading…

Voting opens tomorrow, 1st October so please get voting 🙂

PS. The copywriter in me really wishes that ‘I’ve just been nominated’ banner said ‘an allergy blog’ not ‘a allergy blog’ but I am trying not to turn into grammar police as well as allergy ranter…
