Raising the bar – Improving asthma care in Wales

In May 2023 we published a new report on asthma services in Wales. 

Poor access to care, a reliance on reliever (rather than preventer) medication and the absence of a new delivery plan, has left Wales with some of the worst asthma outcomes in Europe. Two thirds of asthma deaths are preventable with better basic care.

We’re calling on the Welsh Government to develop a Respiratory Disease Improvement Plan and make asthma a priority. 

In our report we have made 17 recommendations which we hope Ministers will take forward.
