We support aspergillosis patients to enhance understanding of the illness

Story

The vision of Aspergillosis Trust is to achieve the best outcomes for all aspergillosis patients, until such time as a cure can be found. We have an aspiration to support research into the disease and mycology generally that can help improve health outcomes for patients. We will work towards this by:Raising awareness of aspergillosis amongst the general public.Finding ways to ensure patients get the best possible information to help them manage the illness.Increase the understanding of the condition amongst medical professionals.

As a geordie I have taken part in the great north run many times. I am pleased to be running this year to help raise awareness (and hopefully a little bit of money) for this wonderful charity.
