Fund epipen points for anaphylaxis sufferers in public spaces

Closed 173 signatures

What the petition asks

Defibrillator points are spread about towns & cities. We are campaigning for funding for epipen points too.
I was given a drink on a night out causing an allergic reaction. I had no epipen but luckily my reaction wasn’t bad. However, if it was more severe, an epipen point could save a life.

These epipen points are for those who are experiencing anaphylaxis (a severe allergic reaction) who need an epipen in situations where their epipens have failed, or they have forgotten their epipen, or when ambulances aren’t available quick enough.

Instructions from 999 could tell you where to locate your nearest epipen. An app could also aid this.
