I’m running the Great North Run in the fight for breath
In the summer of 2025 my mum, Gillian, was diagnosed with having COPD. She amazingly and immediately gave up smoking and so I am doing something nearly as hard for her! The Great North Run!
Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with lung disease. I want to make a difference. I'm running the Great North Run for Asthma + Lung UK, 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.
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 support would be amazing in my fight for lung health!
Thank you to my Sponsors
