Our Founder's Story

Lisa Malyon is a full-time communications consultant specialising in health, energy and environment behaviour change campaigns. But more importantly, she is a mum of three children. 

After Lisa was admitted to hospital with pneumonia and her eldest daughter developed asthma, she made it her mission to understand what was in the air they breathed. 

Lisa's journey began with simple air monitoring devices and learning about the various particles and gases in the air that impact our health.

Lisa's conversations with friends and family, and those intrigued by her air monitoring activities, revealed a concerning lack of awareness about indoor air quality.

Lisa and her team are on a mission to educate the nation on how to maintain healthy indoor air quality and what simple, fresh air through ventilation can do to improve physical and mental health.
