The 2023 theme for World COPD Day will be “Breathing is Life – Act Earlier” and takes place on November 15th. This year’s theme aims to highlight the importance of early lung health, early diagnosis and early interventions.
COPD, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, is the name used to describe a number of conditions affecting the lungs including emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
COPD makes it difficult to breathe and you might find everyday tasks can be a real challenge. But with the right support, it’s possible to live well with COPD.
