BeatAsthma

Beat Asthma is an organisation dedicated to improving the lives of children and young people with asthma. Its work is guided by the belief that every child deserves excellent care that meets national recommendations, wherever they receive it. Beat Asthma promotes coordinated support from healthcare professionals, schools, families and patients, and encourages young people and their families to build the knowledge and confidence to manage asthma themselves.

The organisation provides information and practical resources for families, children, young people, schools, and primary and secondary healthcare professionals. Its materials include asthma action plans for different ages, inhaler types and treatment approaches, as well as guidance on asthma devices and videos covering inhaler use, peak flow meters, asthma basics and managing attacks. Beat Asthma also offers courses, a shop with personalised asthma action plans and other products, and fundraising opportunities. Its website shares stories and feedback, introduces the people behind the organisation, and raises awareness of asthma’s potential impact on everyday life.
