Hi has anyone been to the allergy and free from shows before ? I was going to take my daughter to Liverpool on Sunday . I thought it might do her good seeing different ideas and being among other coeliacs etc . Its 2 1/2 hour drive so basically does anyone no if it's worth it please .

I go every year to London and take my boyfriend and mum because I need help bringing home all the stuff I buy!

It'll be really encouraging for her (and you) to see how much is out there that you didnt know about. I found out about websites I didn't know, like goodness direct. Definitely go, have a great time :)

I go to the one in London, and it's well worth it. always come back with loads of stuff as it's often heavily reduced in price.

There's also loads of nibbles to test, so you won't go hungry.

Check out the wheat free bakery online as well if your daughter is newly diagnosed.

Hello Just to say I went to Liverpool on Sunday . Thankyou for advising me to go , my daughter definitely felt better seeing so many others like herself . The giveaway stuff was brilliant we had to go back to the car once . Gluten free chips on sale was a plus for her . The best was Alergy Adventurers the girls mother was lovely and spent a while talking to my daughter. I really recommend them for younger people .

Nairns oats have a massive selection aswell 5 items for £5 . Usually there oatcakes are a rip off but I happily got a few months supply . One regret is I never went back to the Voakes pie stall I wouldn't have minded testing the pie pastry .

Might go to Glasgow in March weather permitting x
