Every Breath is Precious
Our Patron, Nick Ashill, will soon run 900 miles across Britain to raise money for Pulmonary Fibrosis.
What is Pulmonary Fibrosis?
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a serious lung condition that causes scarring of the lungs, making it progressively more difficult to breathe.
Although there is currently no cure, treatments, practical support and lifestyle changes can help people manage the condition and improve their quality of life. Understanding pulmonary fibrosis is the first step towards accessing the right information, support and care.
