100km August Challenge from 1st August - 31st August

Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis (APF) is a national charity that supports everyone affected by pulmonary fibrosis through information and support, raises awareness of this devastating lung condition, and funds vital research to improve treatment, find a cure, and bring hope for the future.

Story

This August, I’m walking 100km to raise awareness and funds for Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis, a cause deeply personal to me. I’m dedicating this effort to my mum, who we lost to Interstitial Lung Disease last October. My mum was the heart of our family, showing incredible strength and resilience even in her most challenging moments. Her warmth, kindness, and unwavering courage touched everyone who knew her. I want to honour her memory by supporting those who are battling the same condition.

Pulmonary Fibrosis affects over 200,000 people in the UK, and Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis is dedicated to funding vital research to find better treatments and, ultimately, a cure. Your donations will directly support these efforts and help improve the lives of those living with this challenging disease.

How Your Donations Make a Difference:

- Advancing Research: Your support funds essential research to discover new treatments and work towards a cure for Pulmonary Fibrosis.

- Enhancing Support: Contributions help provide resources and support to improve the lives of people affected by this disease.

- Raising Awareness: Donations help raise awareness about Pulmonary Fibrosis and its prevention.

Every contribution counts:

-£10 provides a phone call with a specialist nurse, offering valuable support and information to those affected.

-£25 funds a Carers Group session, helping caregivers connect and share experiences with others in similar situations.

-£50 helps create and distribute vital information packs, empowering individuals with knowledge to make informed choices about their health.

-£100 supports groundbreaking research efforts, bringing us closer to a potential cure for pulmonary fibrosis.

Please donate whatever you can to support this cause. Let's come together to honour my mum’s memory and bring hope to those facing this tough battle.

Thank you for your generosity and support in advance, not only from me but also on behalf of my dad, sister, brother, and brother-in-law. Your kindness means more than words can express.
