Asthma Awareness Month

May is asthma awareness month, with May 7th celebrated as World Asthma Day.

Across the month, many awareness campaigns are held including ‘Prevention is the Best Treatment’, workshops and informative information. There are many resources which provide guidance on how to manage asthma, but also the importance of considering air quality and the impacts that this can have. During the month, people can be encouraged to reflect on both indoor and outdoor air quality and how they may be contributing to increasing air pollution in these environments.
