Our helpline closes for Christmas at 3pm 23rd December and will open again on 3rd January. All of the helpline team wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

If your asthma starts to get worse during the festive break, or the symptoms of your lung condition flare up contact your GP or asthma nurse, call 111 for advice or 999 in an emergency.

This is also a helpful resource: nhs.uk/nhs-services/service...

It’s important that you, your friends and family know what to do in an emergency. You can find our asthma attack advice here: asthma.org.uk/advice/manage...

Our lung condition flare up advice can be found here: blf.org.uk/support-for-you/...
