The Swindon branch of the Breathe Easy Group will be manning an information stand at the Stratton branch of Sainsbury's this weekend.
Members will be on hand to answer questions regarding The British Lung Foundation and support group activities. Information leaflets on various breathing and lung illnesses will also be available.
In addition, the group is seeking able-bodied volunteers to help with fund-raising and other tasks.
It has set a fund-raising target of £5,000 to buy a Bipap Ventilator for the Great Western Hospital.
The specialist machine will help patients with severe breathing difficulties.
Anyone who can offer assistance or would like to make a donation should call 01793 495790 or 01793 874571 for further information.
