-  To promote research into asthma and its allied disorders.
-  To provide information about asthma and to spread the knowledge of the     
   causes, alleviation and treatment of asthma to everyone who needs it.-
-  To provide, through appropriate medical channels, medical equipment for      
    use by and for the treatment of persons suffering from asthma and its allied   
    disorders.

The Branch is run by an elected committee whose members live in different parts of the area, and is supported by a Medical Adviser.
