Asthma + Lung UK

Just if people have a better understanding of their condition, they're more, more likely to adhere to, you know, the self-management plan and have better outcomes, like reducing the number of infections and exacerbations and in-increasing their quality of life.

And we would signpost, you know, if in during a s- a session or, or, uh, appointment, we would, we would, uh, signpost people towards the Asthma and Lung UK booklet on bronchiectasis.

And it has some nice tips on keeping hydrated, and smoking cessation, and keeping active.

And then I suppose one of the main other points that we would cover in a physio session would be like a self-management plan.

There's also Asthma and Lung UK.

It's called it used to be Asthma UK.

It's now changed to Asthma and Lung UK.

All the advice, everything that you could possibly need will be on that website.

We know that in Wales, around one in four people are living with a lung condition.

And our recent polling from Asper and Lung UK in Wales shows that about seven out of ten of our population are concerned about their family's respiratory health.

You can imagine there are very similar figures.

Welsh respiratory care is in the middle of a lot of change.
