Breathe Easy Week is part of the British Lung Foundation calendar, and this year it takes place from 16-22nd June! Why not get involved to show your support and help raise awareness.
Breathe Easy Week is where a series of events happen across the UK to raise awareness of a particular issue related to lung disease and the theme for this year is “breathlessness and early diagnosis”
Breathlessness can also be names shortness of breath or dyspnoea, it is normal to feel out of breath sometimes after exercise etc but it can also be a symptom of something more serious such as obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma or interstitial lung disease.
It’s important to get these checked out as soon as possible and Breathe Easy Week will help raise awareness of that.
If you would like any information about breathlessness pop into your local Sykes Chemist branch for some friendly or helpful information, they also have a full article on their website which you can easily have a look at too!
