Steptember for #Breathtember
Would you like to help people living with pulmonary fibrosis by walking 11,000 steps a day?
Sign up for this year’s #Breathtember challenge!
September is Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Month – we call it #Breathtember. Thanks to you, Breathing Matters is now in its 11th year.
We are calling for our supporters, friends and families to walk 11,000 steps a day and raise money and awareness for pulmonary fibrosis during the whole month of September – anywhere and anytime you choose. 11,000 steps a day reflects 11 years of Breathing Matters’ support for the pulmonary fibrosis community.
Make every #Breathtember step count:
Step up your fitness - Help work off that summer ice-cream and cocktail weight. A 2019 study in JAMA Internal Medicine found that women who took 4,400 steps per day had lower mortality rates than women who took 2,700 steps per day.
Step up your fundraising – Set up a Justgiving Page from our home page. Collect donations from your family and friends to help motivate you further in your Steptember for #Breathtember challenge. Read our fundraising tips to give you handy hints.
Step up awareness – Tweet about your challenge using the hashtag #Breathtember to raise much needed awareness of this little known yet fatal disease.
Every supporter will get a medal on completing the Steptember for #Breathtember challenge. Any supporter who raises more than £50 for pulmonary fibrosis will be entered into a prize draw!
