Asthma and Lung UK Parent Carer Support Network


Do you have children or grandchildren who are 0-17 and living with asthma? The Asthma and Lung UK Parent Carer Support Network is a group for you.

You are welcome to join the group if your child has been diagnosed with asthma, or if you think they might have asthma. They will give you lots of help to manage your child's asthma at home, in school and in after-school clubs.

How they can help

Every month the group get together in a relaxed and friendly online video call. They talk about the ups and downs of our children's asthma journey with kind and supportive nurses and doctors. They can answer any questions you have about asthma. The group is also a great place to meet other families of children with asthma, who understand what you're going through.

Go to Asthma and Lung UK Parent and Carer Support Network Events to join their mailing list and sign up to their next event.

'Sweet dreams' - helping your child to sleep better with asthma

Wednesday 24 July 2024 at 7.00pm

If your child's asthma keeps them (and you) up at night with coughing, wheezing and other symptoms, this can be a real concern. Sleep is essential for our children's development, as well as their physical and mental health. 

We'll meet experienced GP Steve who will be there to give us lots of advice and support.

You can also meet other parents and carers of children with asthma and share tips and tricks to help your child get a good night's sleep.
