Wilson Vale, a B CorpTM contract caterer that manages quality-driven food services for workplace restaurants, conference centers and independent education, has entered into a 3-year strategic partnership with The Natasha Allergy Research Foundation, the UK’s food allergy charity, helping to support the organisation’s goal to #MakeAllergyHistory
Wilson Vale Managing Director, Melissa Wallbank, says: “Food should be something everyone can enjoy with confidence. As a food service company, we have a deep responsibility to create safe, inclusive dining experiences for all. By partnering with The Natasha Allergy Research Foundation, we’re helping to advance vital research and awareness that can truly make a difference, supporting the Foundation’s ambition to make allergy history”.
The Natasha Allergy Research Foundation was founded in 2019 by Tanya and Nadim 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 #MakeAllergyHistory, in particular food allergy, and improve the lives of the millions of people in the UK with food allergies. The couple have both been awarded OBEs for their work around food allergy.
Natasha’s Foundation is one of the only allergy charities dedicated to medical research. It wants to understand what is causing the dramatic rise in allergic disease – and develop ways to prevent, treat and ultimately eradicate it, creating a world that is safe for everyone.
Tanya Ednan-Laperouse, OBE, says: “Allergies have surged dramatically in the last 30 years, making it more important than ever to uncover the causes behind this global challenge. With millions affected by food allergies, including 1 in 13 schoolchildren, the need for action is clear. We’re thrilled that Wilson Vale is standing with us to #MakeAllergyHistory. Together, we’re raising awareness and funding research that brings hope for lasting change.”
