Holidaying with pulmonary fibrosis
When you’re living with pulmonary fibrosis (PF), going on holiday might need a bit more planning and preparation. We’ve written this guide to help you think about your needs so you can enjoy your holiday.

Read more about holidaying with PF.

Our support group includes patients, their loved ones and anyone affected by Pulmonary Fibrosis.  We have a wealth of shared experiences and knowledge about living with PF.  We can offer support, advice and more importantly a friendly, relaxed & informal environment to talk about PF or other ILDs.

 

We operate with the full support of our local NHS Health Care Professionals and have close relationships with the Respiratory Team, Palliative Care Teams, Oxygen Service and other support and care services. All of whom regularly attend our meetings.

If you feel you would like to attend you just need to turn up, everyone is made welcome, please come along for a chat.
