On agency assignment - one month left - can I reduce hours?

I'm employed with an agency that is based at our local college. From what I have been told, assingments are rather regular so you never spend any months without work.
My issue at the moment is, I suffer with severe asthma and a few issues with my breathing. This gets worse during the autumn and winter months. I've already taken three days off sick this week because of it.
What I want to do is, I want to reduce my days from the standard five a week to about three, four at a push. Would I have grounds to do this? The current assingment has a month left, and it's nothing major at the moment - the thing is I don't want to let this team and any other teams down.
Can I go about doing this?

You can ask, you may suggest it as a reasonable adjustment but they may select someone more flexible next time. Will you leave the team shorthanded, can you suggest any ways to address any objections?0
