Do you have children or grandchildren who are 0-17 and living with asthma? The Asthma + Lung UK Parent Carer Support Network is a group for you. You are welcome to join us if your child has been diagnosed with asthma, or if you think they might have asthma. We will give you lots of help to manage your child’s asthma at home, in school and in after-school club

Every month we get together in a relaxed and friendly online video call. We talk about the ups and downs of our children’s asthma journey with kind and supportive nurses and doctors. They can answer any questions you have about asthma. Our group is also a great place to meet other families of children with asthma, who understand what you’re going through. Join our mailing list and sign up to our next event here:
