Asthma is a long-term disease which affects 10% of West Australians. It can be controlled with proper treatment however at present there is no cure.

Asthma is currently one of the top 8 national health priorities affecting 1 in 9 children and 1 in 10 adults. It affects more than 2 million Australians, is the most common form of chronic illness amongst children, is a leading cause of admission to hospital, and a leading cause for days away from school or work.  For more information please visit www.asthmawa.org.au

Asthma Foundation of Western Australia

Asthma is serious. Our vision is to free Western Australians from asthma.

The Asthma Foundation WA is a community-based, not-for-profit organisation dedicated to helping people breathe better. The Foundation was founded in 1964 from the personal concern of a group of dedicated people brought together to consider how they will help people affected by asthma.

The Asthma Foundation WA has established itself as a leading community organisation that funds local research into asthma and provides education and support services for people with asthma, their families and carers.

Thank you for breathing some fresh air into the world of those living with asthma. Your support and efforts make a big difference.
