Hope Half Hour 2023

I’m doing the Hope Half Hour this January.

Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with lung disease. Asthma + Lung UK is the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe. The Asthma + Lung UK helpline gives on average half an hour of support to everyone who contacts them.

I’m doing the Hope Half Hour, walking half an hour every day in January, to make a difference. 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 UK's nurses to answer a call on the Helpline, offering potentially lifesaving advice. I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!

Week 3

Monday 23rd Jan
Like many parts of the UK, my hometown was hit with snow, ice and frost! I have had to wrap up extra warm but it has been worth it! 

Week 2

Monday 23rd Jan
I have continued my half an hour using my strider, I am very happy to see improvements when I am using it now. It has been very miserable with rain so staying dry but still completing the challenge is what counts! 

Week 1

Sunday 8th Jan
Last year I recorded my progress day by day but this year I have decided to do it weekly. Due to very poor weather where I live, I decided to incorporate my exercise strider into my hope half hour everyday before work. 

New Year, New Challenge

Thursday 29th Dec
I participated in this event last year and throughly enjoyed the journey, and could not miss the opportunity to take part again for 2023! As an Asthmatic myself and having other members of my family with Asthma I understand how important it is to get the right advise and support regarding managing my Asthma. I am hoping to raise both money and awareness to ensure everyone gets the support they need, whether they are Asthmatic or know someone who is Asthmatic. Here is to 2023! :)
