Educational vignettes: The Peninsula Paediatric Allergy Network covers the allergy units from Cornwall to Taunton and Dorchester. They are keen to engage with primary care and have created a series of educational vignettes for conditions often seen in their clinics. The second set covers cow’s milk protein allergy and allergic rhino-conjunctivitis (hay fever). These common conditions have an enormous impact on the lives of patients and families. Because of this it is worth investing in trials and early escalation of treatment meaning less intervention will be needed later down the line. The vignettes will also be on the SGPET website.

- RESILIENCE is a one-hour documentary produced by James Redford (2015) that delves into the science of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the birth of a new movement to treat and prevent Toxic Stress. Now understood to be one of the leading causes of everything from heart disease and cancer to substance abuse and depression, extremely stressful experiences in childhood can alter brain development and have lifelong effects on health and behaviour. However, what’s predictable is preventable. Physicians, educators, social workers and communities are daring to talk about the effects of divorce, abuse and neglect. And they’re using cutting edge science to help the next generation break the cycles of adversity and disease. Email sarah@ehcap.co.uk to access a free log in
