For the HealthUnlockders who asked me about a Breathe Easy Community forum being formed for people who cannot attend a local Breathe Easy group.I am sorry it is taking a long time for me to give you an answer .The BLF are looking into the idea and I hope to be able to update you in the near future.

Keep us in touch. I am definitely interested. Although what difference to this forum??
We have a couple in our area but a bit too far for me so I have co-organised a support group locally, doing pretty much the same things as Breathe Easy. I think a special tab on this forum would be a great idea though.
An online group is a great idea. Count me in. My nearest Breath Easy is a 45/50 minute drive away. And as it's in a holiday resort (Weymouth), summer traffic could turn that into well over an hour.
what a good idea, I have worked with people and committees all my life and I find the idea of breath easy for those who want to but the last thing I want to do is be with a lot of people, but I am forced to if I want what breath easy can offer [ if there was one anywhere near] I do also think that there is many people like me and who can not get to a breath easy,
People that can attend a Breathe Group will hopefully contribute what is happening to others on the site
I would like to join too. I have a breathe easy group about half an hour drive away. Hubby says he will take me (excuse for him to slope off to the pub) but I am too nervous to walk into a room full of strangers.
What a good idea, we would really welcome this. Please, please hurry up, I can't wait. It does make a lot of sense as the groups are few and far between x
Hi as I,m not coping to well with my copd I would love to be able to join the group. I feel very alone at times as I don,t know of anyone in my area who has this. I have spoken to the great nurses on the blf helpline and got support. hope everyone has a good day. x
Hi poppy, you are never alone when you come onto this site; there is usually someone around to help, advise, or cheer you up when you need it. Just jump in and join in x
I am looking forward to this, King, and thank you for your trouble. What format -- informative stuff as well as the social side. I like a joke but would like to learn as well.
The format will have to be worked on but it will adhere to what Breath Easy members expect at their meetings:- BLFnews & information,what the speakers have said,members reporting on trips out,theatre,special events .members reports on their own activities etc
And most importantly what members want

Excellent. I don't mind a laugh but this is something different.. chit chat not appropriate..
