Closed Fund a new COPD strategy, including psychological interventions

Closed on

We urge Parliament to help improve Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) outcomes by funding the development of a new COPD Strategy.

We would like the strategy to include:
- psychological screening and mental health intervention.
- funded COPD research to explore potential holistic care.
- raising awareness to help reduce stigma.
It is estimated COPD affects over a million people in the UK, costing the NHS an estimated £1.9 billion annually. Despite this, we believe that it is underfunded, stigmatized, and poorly integrated into care.
