COVID-19 has impacted all our lives. As a charity dedicated to changing the lives of everyone affected by asthma, it's put us in a perilous position and has devastated our ability to raise vital funds.
Now more than ever, people with asthma need our help and to be heard! They need our free health advice, our Helpline Nurses and the ground-breaking research that we fund. Asthma needs a voice!

4 million more people now need us
Since the start of 2020, 6 million people have visited our website for free health advice and more - that's a whopping 4 million more people than last year*.
Key fundraising events cancelled
Despite record numbers of people needing our support because of COVID-19, many of our key Fundraising events, like the London Marathon, have been cancelled, devastating our ability to raise vital funds.

We can't do this without you
Thanks to Asthma UK's supporters my life has been extended.
I've been admitted to hospital 48 times because of my asthma. My asthma was spiralling out of control and my GP told me I was unlikely to make it to 50 unless I lost weight. That day, I spoke with a nurse on the Asthma UK Helpline. Following this, I changed my medication and lost seven stone. I've not had an asthma attack for the last three and half years.
