My Big Christmas Singalong background

I'm holding a Big Christmas Singalong for Asthma + Lung UK to raise money and make a difference.

This is a charity that means a lot to me and my family. I have a chronic sinobronchial condition, and my husband has severe asthma, thankfully well-controlled thanks to advances in research and medicine. My husband lost his dad to asthma when he was just 6 years old, and decades on, it's still not taken seriously enough by many. It's not just 'being a bit out of puff'.

1 in 5 people in the UK will experience a lung condition in their lifetime. Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has 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. I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!
