An early Christmas present for the COPD Friends community

[MaddieHU]

Dear community members,

You may be aware that here at HealthUnlocked, our model works through partnering with patient advocacy organizations, who provide their resources and expertises to relevant communities on the platform. This enable us to offer a safe and supportive network to all HealthUnlocked members.

To this end, we are thrilled to announce that we have a new partner organization for your COPD Friends community; Right2Breathe (right2breathe.org/)

They will be coming onboard to share their resources and knowledge of COPD to help grow and nurture your community.

As part of Right2Breathe coming on board, you may notice some branding changes to the community, including the addition of the Right2Breathe logo and a new banner, but all other aspects of the community will remain the same and you will be able to continue sharing posts and receiving support as you always have done.

Keep an eye out for Right2Breathe's intro post next week, and welcome them into your wonderful community!

Why do you mention only COPD? I have pulmonary sarcoidosis and pulmonary hypertension. Will Right2Breathe be useful for me too?

Hi sarcoid123 , this community is specifically focused on the topic of COPD, however you can use the search function at the top of the page to find other communities related to the conditions you mentioned.

Thanks,

Maddie
