Keeping well this winter
During the colder months, there might be a higher risk of catching coughs and colds when meeting face-to-face. If you're concerned about this, please contact the group organiser for information about how group members are keeping in touch, and how the group manages infection risk.

Being diagnosed and living with a lung condition can be challenging. Support groups offer the opportunity to meet others who understand what you are going through and are open to anyone affected by pulmonary fibrosis - patients, family, carers and friends.

The group aims to:

·       Provide a space for emotional support where you can meet other people in similar situation and share your hopes, fears, and aspirations.

·       Offer a range of health care professionals and other experts to give talks and answer any questions or concerns you may have.

·       Provide information on the latest Pulmonary Fibrosis research, developments, events and signposting advice to other relevant organisations.
