I’m getting breathless for asthma!

I'm challenging myself to 10 days straight of fitness activity because, as someone who lives with asthma, I know how hard it can be to struggle for breath. This challenge is my way of pushing my limits and raising awareness about the reality of asthma. 

Asthma is responsible for at least one Australian death every day and around 100 hospitalisations daily, with over 80% of these hospitalisations considered potentially avoidable. Asthma affects 1 in 9 Australians, with children being the most impacted.

You can show your support by using the Donate button. Your contributions will fund ground-breaking research and provide free support programs and services to the asthma community, like 1800 ASTHMA, a telephone information support service that receives around 20 calls a day from people with asthma and their carers.

Your support can make a difference in the lives of those who, like me, live with asthma every day.
