Respiratory physiotherapy outpatient service

We support people with lung conditions, including:

  • chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

  • activity and exercise programmes and advice 
  • support, advice and information to help you manage your symptoms

Health information

Research and clinical trials

Research is vital to improving the care that you receive when you're unwell. You can help improve healthcare by taking part in research studies at our Trust. During your appointment, ask your healthcare professional about research. They'll be happy to tell you about research studies you could be eligible to join.
