PEOPLE suffering from lung conditions in the Stockton and North Tees area have a new support group to call on for help.
The British Lung Foundation (BLF) has launched a new Breathe Easy group to offer support and information to anyone living with lung disease, including carers, and help them to cope with day to day living.
Margaret Tait, from the BLF, said: "People often take breathing for granted until they, or a loved one, develop a problem. We have opened a much needed service for local people living with lung disease."
The group will provide information, support and friendship to anyone affected by lung disease and has become a powerful campaigning voice for change.
If you would like more information about Breathe Easy Stockton contact Margaret Tait on 0191 2630276.
