September is Breathtember – Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Month
Get out of Breath for Breathtember
Tweet Tweet!
To help raise awareness, we would ask that supporters tweet different challenges each day in September including the term ‘#Breathtember’ and to ask their followers to retweet and share this information as widely as possible.
Think outside the box for your challenges – getting out of breath could mean:
- Doing a colourful 5K run or walk, eg. Run or Dye 5k http://uk.runordye.com/
- Walking over the wonderous London bridges
- Doing a musical 10K run, eg Run to the Beat 10K http://www.runtothebeat.co.uk/Event
- Completing a Spartan Race http://uk.spartanrace.com/events
- Scaling a mountain
- Skydiving
- Or just simply walking up the stairs!
The important thing is that you tweet your challenge every day including the term ‘#Breathtember’ to raise awareness of pulmonary fibrosis. This September, we want as many people as possible to see the term ‘#Breathtember’. To make the biggest impact, the aim is to get the term ‘#Breathtember’ to trend.
Register on the Breathing Matters website for further details: breathingmatters.co.uk
REMEMBER TO TWEET YOUR CHALLENGE EVERY DAY!
