I’m wheelchair walking in memory of Becky Giles

Becky and I were friends through her blog because of a shared diagnosis of severe brittle asthma, and many other things including a shared love of cats. She and I went through lots of hospital admissions and times when we needed to support the other through Facebook messages.
Becky died in August 2023, and I would like to raise money for Asthma+Lung UK in her memory. To do this I’ll be doing wheelchair walks around my local park over the month of April 2024, which was Becky’s birthday month. I am unable to do long distance in one stretch, but making up the km, the length of a marathon, in smaller chunks is doable for me.
I’d like to raise money for people like Becky and myself, who have found Asthma+Lung UK a great support and resource while living with severe lung conditions.
