Asthma Week ~ September 2025

This Asthma Week Asthma Australia is asking parents to help flip the script and Attack Asthma for their child. 

It’s time we Attack Asthma before the symptoms start!

Asthma is one of the leading causes of children ending up in hospital. New research by Asthma Australia shows that while most parents feel like they are confident in managing their child’s asthma, nearly two thirds live in constant fear of an asthma attack. 

But it doesn’t have to be this way. 

A daily preventer can help keep your child's asthma under control, reducing the chance of an attack. This means less time feeling sick or in the hospital and more time for them to just be a kid. Instead of waiting for symptoms like wheezing or difficulty breathing, use a preventer every day to help your child breathe normally.

Asthma attacks can be scary. 😔

New research shows most parents feel confident managing their child’s asthma - but many aren’t using daily preventer medicines in an effective way. This “prevention gap” leaves kids more vulnerable than families realise, and leaves parents living with constant worry.

This Asthma Week (1–7 Sept) and beyond, we’re urging families to Attack Asthma before it attacks your child.

☑️ Talk to your doctor about preventers

 Update your child’s Asthma Action Plan

👀 Don’t dismiss symptoms like coughing or wheezing
