About this Member

Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis is a national UK charity. We bring people together to drive change so more people affected by pulmonary fibrosis (or lung scarring) can live well for longer. People living with lung scarring, their loved ones and the professionals caring for them are at the heart of everything we do.

We provide expert support, information, education, help a growing network of support groups and raise awareness of pulmonary fibrosis. We collaborate to drive change that improves health and care and we provide vital resources to researchers, bringing hope for new and future treatments for this devastating disease.

We estimate between 15,000 and 20,000 people a year are diagnosed with lung scarring. Despite pulmonary fibrosis being as deadly as some cancers, it takes too long for people to get diagnosed, treated and supported. This shortens and devastates lives and leaves people feeling alone, confused and frightened.

Together we will stop lives being lost to pulmonary fibrosis.
