Ben’s 10‘000 steps a day

By Ben Lomax

I’m walking to make a difference.

Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. Every pound I raise takes us closer to a world where everyone breathes clean air with healthy lungs.

Just £24 could support a researcher at the start of their career to carry out an hour of lung health research to ensure we attract and keep the best scientific minds to focus on lung disease.

Any donations you can give are hugely appreciated thank you for supporting me and everyone out there living with a lung condition.

I‘m Ben (Neb….nebuliser!) 
I’m 12 years old and have Acute/Chronic Asthma. I was diagnosed at age 5 after 4 days in intensive care in Seattle, and have struggled most my life. 
I am currently just out of the HDU in Guernsey after 5 days on Oxygen; infusions; medication and some awful drinks! 
I love sport but it looks like it will be a little while before I’m back to my 'normal'! 
So once I’m recovered and after Christmas, I’m looking to walk 10‘000 steps a day until my 13th birthday. Or my mum will if I’m unable to. This seems not a lot, but having only walked too/from the bathroom 5 days, I’ll be happy with my 10‘000. 
so please join me and or please donate :)

Great initiative Ben! I am sure you will be surprised how rapidly you will gain strength! Also one day you may well recover from asthma altogether, as you seem to have a great determination. Also have fun
