If you’re interested and passionate about providing support and information for people affected by a lung condition either face to face or online, our support group volunteer roles might be just what you’re looking for.

What does this role look like?

Our support groups volunteer run monthly meetings to benefit people with lung conditions. The hours are flexible and will vary depending on the volunteer’s availability to setting up the group, organising speakers and other resources.

This is an opportunity to also meet new people, make new connections and friends, while increasing your knowledge of lung conditions and services in the area. You could learn new skills, while offering much needed support for people living with a lung condition, their families and friends, and raise awareness of the work that Asthma + Lung UK are doing.
