Lung Legends

We are proud to share that Lung Foundation Australia has announced the 2026 Lung Health Legends 💙

Each year, the Foundation recognises some of Australia’s leading respiratory experts for their outstanding contributions to lung health, research, clinical care, and advocacy. Their work continues to drive meaningful progress in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, and to improve outcomes for people living with lung disease.

We were also honoured to have Stephanie, a new committee member, represent PCD Australia as a carer with lived experience of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia at a special afternoon tea held at Admiralty House. In this role, she shared valuable personal insights with attendees on the challenges of caring for a child with a rare lung condition.

Stephanie also had the opportunity to connect with other individuals living with PCD who were in attendance, highlighting the importance of community and shared experience within the rare disease space.

We extend our sincere thanks to Her Excellence the Governor General Sam Mostyn and the Lung Foundation for hosting this important event and for highlighting excellence in lung health.

Please join us in congratulating the 2026 Lung Health Legends and thanking them for their dedication to improving lung health outcomes for all Australians.
