What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Asthma is a serious long-term lung condition caused by swollen airways that narrow. This causes wheezing, chest tightness, and breathlessness. Most asthma is well-controlled with medication. However, 5-10% of asthmatics have severe asthma where treatment does not control symptoms and up to 67% of asthmatics have uncontrolled asthma, caused by not always taking medication as recommended, lifestyle choices or other health problems worsening their asthma. In the UK, asthma affects around 800,000 young adults. This group is at high-risk of having poor asthma control, worse outcomes than other age-groups. This is because young adults need care that differs from other age-groups and current care is not meeting these needs. There is little information on the experiences and needs of this group and very few studies exist, exploring how to improve care. This study will explore the experiences
