Allergen Awareness - Save Lives
Help small business survive with Collaboration.

The current law is impossible to comply with for the caterer.

Changes must be made. It is the government's responsibility to provide tools that are workable - the government must play its part to assist enabling these 3 points:

  1. To vet and agree "a single source of truth" for all information on calories, fats, sugars, food miles and allergens for all ingredients to use an API and PDF's;
  2. Enforce manufacturers to help with API's. Government to agree upon one database to make it safer for people with all types of allergens to eat out;
  3. One government department owning the "single source of truth" who would manage and maintain the database after initial build and remain the single point of contact and authority

Please see the Zoom Video of meeting 17th April 2023. We need more awareness of the complexity needs to make it safe to eat out.
