BLF Northern Ireland works to provide support, advice and information to those living with lung disease across Northern Ireland. Breathe Easy supporters are heavily involved in fundraising, as well as lobbying the Northern Ireland Health Boards for a better lung health service.
There are currently three Breathe Easy groups in Northern Ireland, which provide help, information and support to those living with lung disease, their friends, family and careers. Groups get involved with a large number of events, which in the past have included sponsored walks, dinner dances, day trips for members and World COPD Day as well as hearing from a wide range of speakers.
Local group meeting details are listed below. Please call the Northern Ireland office on 0141 229 0318 before going to your first meeting. They will give you the group contact number so that you can check the meeting is on.
