APN 334 - 17/22: All Party Group on Lung Health
A virtual meeting of the All Party Group (APG) on Lung Health has been arranged to take place on Tuesday 19 January 2021 at 1pm using Zoom.
At some point in our lives, one in five of us will have a lung disease. This can vary from common conditions such as asthma, COPD and sleep apnoea to rarer conditions such as IPF and sarcoidosis.
For this meeting we will be focussing on how we prevent lung conditions with two presentations – one of air pollution and one on smoking cessation.
For the air pollution presentation we will hear from Dr Neil Rowland from Queens University Belfast and Elizabeth Nelson Gorman from Ulster University. For the smoking cessation presentation we will be joined by a speaker from the Public Health Agency.
All Members are welcome to attend.
An invite will be emailed separately to every MLA providing instruction on how to join the remote/virtual meeting.
