Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. 

My Dad was diagnosed with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis six months ago just before he was due to retire.  

We didn't really know a lot about Pulmonary Fibrosis at the time but we do now.  It is a cruel disease, once diagnosed life expectancy can be as little as 3-5yrs. 

There is currently no cure for Pulmonary Fibrosis, treatment may delay the disease however the side effects can be debilitating, a lung transplant could be a final option however donors are very few. That is why we need to raise people's awareness and continue with fundraising to help them find a cure. 

Please help us and donate to this page (Action Pulmonary Fibrosis).

10k races will take place in - Gainsborough, Lincoln, Grantham, Woodhall Spa, Long Bennington, Newark, Caythorpe, Mablethorpe, Skegness and Market Rasen

Thank you so much for reading this, we do appreciate it and thank you in advance for any kind donations.

Remember, every breath is precious!
