Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis (APF) is a growing community of patients, families, researchers and healthcare professionals striving to find a cure for pulmonary fibrosis so that everyone affected by the disease has a better future. We provide personalised support to patient and families - and raise awareness of pulmonary fibrosis through campaigning, fundraising and education. We are also committed to funding research to improve the quality of life for people living with pulmonary fibrosis today and tomorrow.

Unfortunately in December 2023 we lost my mum after a nearly 10 year battle with this terrible terrible illness. I feel the least I can do after her heroic fight is lose some weight and run a few miles.

I want to say a huge thank you to Jonny who will be running this half marathon with me.
