2023 Conference Recordings
This online conference was recorded on the 14th of September 2023, as part of the annual #AskAboutAsthma campaign. The theme for 2023 was ‘widening our view’, meaning a focus on the areas that we might not traditionally think of as core asthma management and care but which nonetheless have a significant impact on children and young people’s asthma. Examples include housing and vaping (in children and adolescents). ‘Widening our view’ also promotes inclusion of all children and young people with asthma, their families and the entire wider system that cares for them.
#AskAboutAsthma is run by the NHS England – London Children and Young People’s Asthma Programme. While establishing good asthma care in childhood has positive impacts throughout life, the intent of the programme and the campaign is to improve asthma management and care – and as a result – the lives of children and young people with the condition.
The programme team would like to thank sincerely all the speakers for their participation and expression of their views during the conference, and attendees who engaged, asked questions and in any other way contributed to the success of the conference and the campaign as a whole.
The events, videos, podcasts and blogs are available as part of the #AskAboutAsthma campaign.
A broader range of information published by the NHS including CYP asthma and the wider subjects addressed is also accessible.
