We're coming together to beat Air Pollution

The Air Team is a group of parents and children across the UK who are campaigning for a fresh air future.

An invisible threat

Air pollution is one of the biggest health risks in the UK today. It’s been linked to asthma, lung cancer, and even dementia. This is a silent killer and we’re going to stop it.

Toxic air harms everyone, but especially children

Childhood exposure to air pollution can lead to permanently reduced lung function, and dirty air has been shown to affect the development of foetuses as well. This isn’t the Victorian age. Our children deserve better.

We can do this

We believe that families working together can make all the difference. We’ve got a plan to reduce air pollution in our local areas and put pressure on the right people at the top.

Who are the Air Team?

We’re parents and families across the UK who are worried about air pollution and want to do something about it.
