About Us
Who We Are
The North Bucks Breathe Easy Group is a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) established to support people living with respiratory lung conditions and their carers in the North Buckinghamshire area.
Founded by individuals who understand firsthand the challenges of living with lung conditions, our group was born from a simple belief: nobody should face a lung condition alone.
We are proud to be part of the national network of Breathe Easy groups supported by Asthma + Lung UK (formerly the British Lung Foundation), the UK's leading charity supporting people with lung conditions.
Charity Registration Number: 1212194

A Volunteer-Led Charity
Every aspect of North Bucks Breathe Easy Group is run by volunteers – people who give their time freely because they care about making a difference in the lives of those affected by lung conditions.
Many of our volunteers have personal experience of living with or caring for someone with a respiratory condition. This lived experience brings invaluable understanding and empathy to everything we do.
Our committee members include people with various lung conditions, carers, and community supporters who work together to ensure our group meets the needs of our members.
We're always looking for new volunteers. Whether you can help at meetings, with admin, or share your skills – we'd love to hear from you!
