Facebook Page for Young People with Asthma 

A new Facebook page has recently been established for 13-25 year olds with asthma. The page is titled Young People With Asthma – Australia. Secondary aged students (must be 13 yo & over) and other young people can share their experiences, hear about latest developments and get tips on asthma management. Regular sessions will be held for young people to have their asthma questions answered by an asthma expert.

There will also be chances to provide input to our directions and resource development for this age group.
