The Asthma Society worked closely with the Community Call initiative from the beginning of the pandemic.

With support and in conjunction with the GAA, the Asthma Society created resources designed to guide and inform Community Call volunteers supporting people with severe asthma or severe COPD cocooning during the COVID-19 pandemic.

We were delighted to see such a positive response from the booklets (available to view here) and have since expanded our resources to support people vulnerable people as we move into Phase Two.

Our latest resources include:

–          A guide on going shopping for those who have been cocooning – PDF

–          A resource to support vulnerable people hosting visitors/going visiting for the first time since the outbreak – PDF

–           A printable poster designed to remind visitors/guests of the vulnerability of the home owner in light of COVID-19

–          A guide to wearing face coverings
