Asthma Society of Ireland

The Asthma Society works on behalf of the 470,000 people in Ireland with asthma.

In Ireland, every day more than 70 people attend A&E because of an asthma attack and every day more than 16 people are admitted to hospital due to asthma.

Tragically, asthma claims the life of more than one person every week in Ireland.

Our purpose and vision is to promote awareness of the condition, to provide information, advice and reassurance, to foster and promote research and above all to achieve better asthma control so that children and adults with asthma can live their lives to the full.
