1 in 5 of us will have a lung condition during our lifetime. There's a
new diagnosis every minute.I'm running The London Marathon for Asthma + Lung UK. They're the only UK charity that fights for everyone's right to breathe. Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs.Just £22 allows one of Asthma + Lung UKs nurses to answer a call on the Helpline, offering potentially lifesaving advice. I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!
I'm one of those with a lung condition. I've had asthma since I was a toddler and have always had to manage it as part of my day to day life. In addition over the last years I've also developed a continuous cough caused by an antibiotic resistant bacteria in my lungs (not great during a global pandemic!) which has definitely made training a lot more difficult!
I'm running London for Asthma + Lung UK, because if I can do it then hopefully my efforts will help lots of others who have it worse than I do!
Anything you can give will be much appreciated.
