The Venues Collection Rolls Out Allergen Emergency Kits Across All UK Venues to Boost Guest Safety

The Venues Collection has announced a significant new safety initiative, introducing allergen emergency kits at all of its UK events and training properties. This move aims to enhance protection for attendees, staff and organisers by strengthening readiness for severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis – a critical step given that millions in the UK live with diagnosed allergies, and many do not have emergency medication readily available.

Supplied by specialist provider Kitt Medical, the kits will be positioned in clearly marked, accessible locations throughout every venue. In addition to the equipment, team members will receive dedicated training to ensure quick and effective responses in case of an emergency.

Joanne Barratt, Managing Director of The Venues Collection, highlighted that the initiative reinforces the company’s commitment to inclusivity and safety. By equipping venues with emergency resources and trained staff, The Venues Collection aims to give delegates and guests peace of mind, knowing their wellbeing is prioritised from the moment they arrive.

This rollout builds on the group’s existing allergen management measures, which already include detailed pre-event communication, clear food labelling and robust operational procedures. Together, these efforts form a comprehensive duty-of-care strategy designed to support both planned catering needs and unexpected incidents across its five UK properties.
