Alison Holloway is a dietitian with over 30 years’ experience across NHS and private practice.
She has worked as a specialist diabetes dietitian for many years, including within a young peoples’ diabetes transition service and supporting a complex adult caseload. Her clinical work has focused on adapting diabetes care for individuals who are neurodivergent and/ or struggle with psychological complexity, eating disorders and other barriers to engaging with standard diabetes management approaches.
Alison currently works as a freelance dietitian, specialising in supporting neurodivergent adults living with chronic and medically complex conditions. Her practice centres on realistic, neuroaffirming nutrition, and the adaptation of medical diets to accommodate sensory and executive function differences, fatigue and fluctuating symptoms.
Alongside her professional expertise, Alison brings lived experience as a carer, which helps inform her compassionate and practical approach to care.
