World COPD Day - 19 November 2025
To mark World COPD Day this year (19 November 2025), the Pulmonary Rehabilitation services across Hampshire and Isle of Wight Healthcare along with colleagues from University Hospital Southampton and Portsmouth Hospitals University are promoting the importance of getting a diagnosis and seeking help if you have persistent breathlessness and a cough.
This year, teams will be providing patient-facing information events as well as offering an opportunity for advice and information to NHS staff.
They will be providing health promotion with information available on COPD and COPD management, checking inhaler technique, signposting to stopping smoking and how to get more active, including accessing Pulmonary Rehabilitation across the region.
