Media and fundraising

It is essential for us to know about the progress you make in your Asthma UK-funded research. All our research is funded through donations from generous members of the public, charitable trusts and corporate donors. We have an obligation to let them know exactly how their money is spent and what it achieves. We also want to promote research and communicate the benefits it can bring to people with asthma.

In particular, we'd love to hear about:

• Papers you’ve submitted for publication that have arisen partly or wholly from an Asthma UK grant
• If you’ll be presenting your Asthma UK-funded work at any scientific conferences or other events
• If your Asthma UK research leads to a change in policy or clinical practice
• Any awards or accolades you receive.
  

Ultimately, good communication and a flow of information mean that we can raise more money to spend on research.

If you are submitting a paper for publication it is a requirement of your Asthma UK grant that you contact us and let us know as soon its accepted for publication. We’ll contact you if we want to publicise it in any way, and we never release any information without your say so.

Your contact at Asthma UK regarding research communications is our Research Relations Manager, Dr Elaine Vickers. She can be contacted by email at evickers@asthma.org.uk or by phone on 020 7786 4942.
