If you have asthma, it’s still important to maintain good control of symptoms by avoiding triggers and taking your puffers as prescribed using the correct technique so the medication reaches your lungs. If you still have symptoms, reach out to your GP.

Plan head. Schedule in with your GP to update your asthma action plan by September. You should review your treatment and step through your current asthma action plan to check you have good control of your symptoms.

If you suffer significant seasonal hay fever, schedule in a visit with your GP by September to manage it before you develop symptoms and it becomes harder to control.
