Story
When my daughter was diagnosed with asthma, she was only 4 years old. It was a hard time with many episodes that ended up with her admitted in hospital, until she was finally diagnosed and had her treatment prescribed. This helped her to manage the symptoms and gave her the chance to have a normal life. She now can even practice sports, including running, a hobby that we both share.
That is why I am running The London Marathon 2023, for both my daughter and for Asthma + Lung UK as they're the only UK charity that fights for everyones right to breathe. Like we did at the time, there are lots of families that need help. In average, 1 in 5 of us will have a lung condition during our lifetime. There's a new diagnosis every minute.
Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs. Just £22 allows one of Asthma + Lung UKs nurses to answer a call on the Helpline, offering potentially lifesaving advice. I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!
