Lung Foundation Australia supports all aspects of lung health from COPD to lung cancer to rarer lung diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis. We have a proud history of community education and run a freecall patient Information and Support centre. We’re a national organisation which supports research, develops educational resources, trains health professionals, and undertakes community awareness activities and advocacy. We bring together key opinion leaders in respiratory medicine, physiotherapy, nursing and primary care to develop resources, training, and education to increase awareness of the importance of maintaining good lung health, provide better management and help support patients and carers living with a lung disease.
