Living Well Alliance launches!

4 Replies

We are excited to announce the launch of our Living Well Alliance, bringing together companies who offer treatments, devices or products that support people to manage their lung conditions.

1 in 5 people in the UK has developed asthma, COPD or another long-term lung condition. While the majority of the 40 lung conditions known to us are not curable, the symptoms can be managed and people’s quality of life can be improved.

All Living Well Alliance members have made a donation to us, and are working with us to improve the lives of people living with lung conditions.

Thank you to our founding members Totally Health and My Clinical Coach, Fisher and Paykel, Philips, Actegy Health and Pond Healthcare Innovations. Find out more about the Alliance and our founding members here:

Very positive indeed. Xx

Hi Hanne62,

These companies have contributed financially to the furtherance of our charitable objectives. This partnership does not mean that we directly endorse their services. We consider each potential partnership very carefully and undertake necessary due diligence in line with our ethical policy.

We hope our new Living Well Alliance will give those who need lung-health support a simple, single access point to some of the best companies in the country, and allow these specialist companies to reach more potential customers.

Thanks,

Ben

Thanks for the info Ben, glad you are joining in with the world wide idea of the living well concept rather than dependency on the NHS services for everything.
