Story

I'm fundraising for Asthma + Lung UK.

My son Ed has lung damage caused by acute trauma from a tracheostomy and ventilation from hospital. He got pneumonia whilst in ICU and now has a chronic condition that he is learning to live and thrive with. Asthma and Lung UK have an online support group and specialist nurses who have helped him learn about his condition and support means he is not alone. £22 funds a specialist nurse to give 1:1 support by phone but I am grateful for whatever you can donate. Thank you.

Asthma + Lung UK are 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.1 in 5 of us will develop a lung condition during our lifetime. There's a new diagnosis every minute.
