We’re proud to say our wonderful PH co mmunity rose to the challenge like true superheroes - an d th is is just a snapshot of that supp ort. Thank you to ever yone.

Rory Sanger completed a marathon distance walk of 26.2 miles over the course of a week, using his permitted daily exercise to raise money in support of his mum (pictured together). He said: “We are eternally grateful for the support and
help that the PHA UK provides for PH patients, and this is of course especially important during the current pandemic situation.”
Stepping it up
Lou Chadbhurn, who is shielding due to her CTEPH, challenged herself to climb 26 flights of stairs at home – and sent us a photo of her sports watch to prove it! Her family also decided to hold a ‘virtual bingo’ game to celebrate her husband’s birthday, raising even more money for our charity.

Chris McCoy-Lavery challenged herself to take on a run in memory of her exhusband, who died just two weeks prior to her fundraising. She said: “I ran 12km (which is 2 x 6km) – not bad for an ‘old’ grandma of 66 years! Thank you for being there.”
