Kick Asthma holidays are run by volunteers, many have asthma but not all. Volunteers attend a training weekend (see dates below) which includes learning about the treatment of children with asthma, eczema, anaphlaxis and food allergies.
'Having asthma myself means I can really understand what it's like. Seeing the kids just having fun and not worrying about their asthma is so rewarding,' says Sarah Isted a past Kick Asthma holidays volunteer.
All volunteer staff are selected on the basis of an application form and references.
If you are interested in volunteering for the 2011 holidays contact the Kick Asthma holidays team.
