Asthma Management for Asian Children

£9,750 | Asian People's Disability Alliance
February 2005 - May 2007

Aim: To produce a booklet about asthma, targeting Asian children who have asthma. The booklet will be printed in English (for children) with guidance notes in English and Punjabi / Urdu / Gujerati / Hindi / Tamil / Bengali (for parents or non-English speaking carers). The booklet will provide age-appropriate information on managing asthma in an Asian cultural and social context, and will be distributed via channels actively used by the Asian community.

Status: The project is complete and a booklet, entitled 'A Special Assembly' can be downloaded as a PDF (4494 kb) .

The expected outcomes are Asian children with asthma and their parents will be better informed and empowered to have confidence in their ability to manage their condition.
