People living in the poorest areas of England are three times more likely to die from a lung condition than those in the richest areas. It doesn’t have to be this way. We’re calling for a modern service framework for respiratory in England. To deliver high-quality care for all.

Did you know more people die from respiratory conditions in the UK than anywhere else in Europe? It doesn’t have to be this way. We’re calling for a modern service framework for respiratory in England. This is essential to deliver better care, earlier diagnosis, and fewer preventable deaths.
