REACH (Regular Exercise for Asthmatic Children)

January 2008 - March 2010

Aims: To help children and their families to develop the confidence to have control over the way their asthma affects their level of physical activity, resulting in future self directed physical activity and improved quality of life.

Update:

• 16 out of 40 children who received information about REACH enrolled for the project.
• 12 out of 16 children who enrolled have started the course for the project.
• 2 children did not attend the course due to prolonged symptoms of flu which exacerbated their asthma symptoms.
• The group of children completed 11 weeks of planned activity sessions, which concluded with a prize giving event and are currently completing post project questionnaires.
