This was talked about several months ago at which time it was said to be at discussion stage only. Administrators said that they would inform us if the proposal went further.

It’s more a shared office and facilities thing. They are still pretty much separate entities but will have more clout with campaigns and influence.

Yes. Asthma UK and the British Lung Foundation formed a partnership. It was launched at the start of this year.

It is a great idea. Asthma is, after all, a lung disease. We often see on here that there is a crossover, a lot of people with asthma and another lung disease. Pooled resources, research etc,

Of course a lot of the early adjustments/news to us/ progress will have been held up by all that's going on out there. Covid-19 seems to have taken over all news.

I knew about the partnership because it was announced at the Breathe Easy Group I go to.
