This Asthma Awareness Week (May 5 - 9), some of Aotearoa’s biggest stars are stepping up to share their stories.

Rugby legends Julian and Ardie Savea, world champion boxer Mea Motu, cricket star Anika Todd, former All Black and firefighter Steve Devine, and young tamariki Alani, Regan, and Kian, are joining forces with Asthma New Zealand to show what’s possible when asthma is managed well with the right support.

These ambassadors are living proof that asthma doesn’t have to hold you back and they all agree that you can live a better life by getting help and the more you understand the easier it gets.
