Do you have what it takes to be an asthma hero?

Breath is the essence of life. For people with asthma, the simple act of breathing is anything but simple. We’re standing up for asthma. Together, your monthly donation will help to take action so everyone has the chance to breathe easy.

If you become an Asthma Hero, because of you: 

  • People with asthma and their carers can speak to a trained Asthma Educator via 1800 ASTHMA (1800 278 462) where personalised information can provide life-changing support 
  • Teachers and school staff will know what to do in an asthma emergency because they’ll have access to an Asthma First Aid course at no-cost to the school staff   
  • People with asthma have access to air quality information, and can make informed decisions about their daily activities because you are funding the AirSmart App  
  • Asthma research is supported. Dr Ryan Mackle’s research aims to support some of the 10,000 children with asthma who present at hospital emergency departments by trialling a virtual model of care for children living in rural New South Wales. The research hopes to connect children and their families to the right care, regardless of where they live.   

Thanks to the support of people like you, we’re able to improve the lives of people with asthma by providing support, programs and information that helps them to breathe better so they can live freely.
