A couple of weeks ago, TrustDiner partnered with the Allergy Free From Show, one of the biggest events for people living with food allergies, intolerances and free from lifestyles.
We were proud to sponsor the podcast area at the show and connect with so many people from the allergy community who are passionate about making eating out and travelling safer for people with allergies.
For our co founder Daniel Kelly, it felt like a real full circle moment.
A full circle moment for TrustDiner
Daniel first started attending the Allergy Free From Show through his allergy platform, May Contain, where he helped support the kidsā section and spoke to parents about what it is like to manage food allergies from a young age.
Over the last five to six years, Dan has continued to attend the show, sharing talks about travelling with food allergies, eating out safely, and empowering people with allergies to feel more confident when exploring the world.
To return this year with his co founder Jacob and sponsor the podcast area through TrustDiner felt incredibly special.
Helping people find allergy friendly restaurants, airlines, hotels and cruise ships
TrustDiner was created to help people with food allergies find allergy friendly places they can trust.
The platform started by helping people find allergy friendly restaurants and airlines, with real reviews from people in the allergy community. Since the Allergy Free From Show, we have also launched hotels, cruise ships and countries, helping people make more informed decisions when eating out and travelling with allergies.
TrustDiner is currently helping people across the UK, Ireland and Australia find safer places to eat, travel and stay.
Whether you are looking for a restaurant that takes allergies seriously, an airline with strong allergy policies, a hotel that understands food allergies, or a cruise ship with allergy aware staff, TrustDiner is built to give the community more transparency.
Real allergy reviews from the community
All allergy reviews on TrustDiner are shared by people living with food allergies or people who care for someone with allergies.
People can rate restaurants, airlines, hotels, cruise ships and countries based on their own experiences. Reviews can help others understand how allergy aware the staff were, whether they felt confident serving someone with an allergy, how safe the overall experience felt, and whether clear allergy procedures were followed.
For airline reviews, people can also share whether staff made an allergy announcement, whether the airline followed its allergy policy, and how confident they felt during the flight.
This kind of transparency is so important for people with food allergies, especially when eating out or travelling somewhere new.
Sponsoring the podcast area at the Allergy Free From Show
As part of our partnership with the Allergy Free From Show, TrustDiner sponsored the podcast area.
Dan recorded some brilliant podcast conversations with professors, authors and experts in the food allergy space. These conversations covered important topics around food allergies, eating out, travel, confidence and the future of allergy awareness.
We will be sharing these podcast episodes later in the summer, so keep an eye out for when they go live.
Meeting the allergy community in real life
One of the best things about the Allergy Free From Show is the chance to meet the allergy community face to face.
When you create content online or build a platform like TrustDiner , you never fully know the impact it is having until someone comes up to you and says they have been using it.
Hearing people say they had been using TrustDiner to find allergy friendly restaurants and safer places to eat was an incredible moment for us.
Why TrustDiner matters for people with food allergies
Living with food allergies can make eating out and travelling feel stressful. It can be hard to know which restaurants understand allergies, which airlines take allergy policies seriously, or which hotels and cruise ships are best prepared to support guests with allergies.
TrustDiner exists to make that process easier.
By bringing together real allergy reviews from the community, we want to help people feel more informed before they book a restaurant, flight, hotel or cruise.
Our goal is to create more transparency around food allergies, so people can make safer choices when eating out and travelling.
Thank you to the Allergy Free From Show
A huge thank you to the Allergy Free From Show for partnering with TrustDiner and allowing us to sponsor the podcast area.
Thank you as well to everyone we met at the show, everyone who shared their story, and everyone who has supported TrustDiner since we launched.
It has been amazing to see TrustDiner grow over the last five months, and being able to showcase it at the Allergy Free From Show was a really proud moment.
We loved being there, and hopefully we will see you again next year.
