Allergies affect more than 20% of the UK population, a percentage which rises by 5% each year.

To mark Allergy Awareness Week 2021, I sit down with Lucy Morell - creator of blog and social media platform Illuminating Allergies.

From the severity of allergic reactions to the fear of eating out, Lucy describes the reality of living with allergies, and why "allergies don't mean missing out, they mean doing things differently."
