I’m swimming to make a difference!
Having being diagnosed with Asthma as a child, I had thought it well managed until the last couple of years. Multiple doctors visits, extra oral steroids, changes to inhalers and even a trip to the hospital after an overnight asthma attack, my family and I are incredibly conscious of the impact asthma has on day to day life. The act of just breathing should be easy but for some of us, it isn't.
Swimming is great exercise for those of us with Asthma and I intend to get back in the pool after a 2 year break to not only strengthen my lungs but raise awareness.
Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. Every pound I raise takes us closer to a world where everyone breathes clean air with healthy lungs.
Just £22 allows one of Asthma + Lung UK's nurses to answer a call on the Helpline, offering potentially lifesaving advice to someone in need.
Any donations you can give are hugely appreciated - thank you for supporting me and everyone out there living with a lung condition.
