September can be a dangerous time for asthmatic children, as colds and flu begin to circulate.😷
Ensure you're prepared following the guidance available via the link below.

As the summer holidays are ending, and with only a couple of weeks until the new term starts, it’s time to start thinking about your child and their asthma medications when they head back to school or nursery.

We know it can be worrying to think about your child being safe at school or nursery. The best way to make sure your child with asthma is being cared for properly is to talk to their teacher or key worker at the start of every term.

Head to our website to find out more about what you can do to prepare your child for school or nursery:
