Story

Hello,

As many of you already know our Dad bravely battled with Pulmonary Fibrosis. He was given 3 years to live and fought on for 8 years. Sadly he passed away last year. Witnessing his strength and determination in the face of his condition has inspired us to take action and make a difference. So just under a year ago Paul, my brother challenged me to run 10km. At that point I could not even run between one lamp post to the next. However, with Dad in mind I made a start with the training. So as a a family we are hoping (ok, I will actually manage even if it involves crawling!) to run 10km in York on the 3rd August.

But we can't do it alone, so we are reaching out to all of you, my friends, family and kind hearted supporters to join me in this mission. Your donations to the "Action For Pulmonary Fibrosis" charity will directly impact the lives of those fighting this condition. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will fund essential research, provide much needed support and give hope to those who need it most.

Lets come together and breathe easier. Your generosity can make a big difference, bringing hope and comfort for those in need. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support on this journey.

Please donate today and help us cross the finish line to a brighter future. Together, we can make a lasting impact!
