British Lung Foundation

Ann has IPF. She shares how breathlessness has affected her life and how she’s learnt to adapt.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a lung condition that scars your lungs and reduces the efficiency of your breathing. Find out more.

Peter is researching why cells function differently in people with IPF to shed light on what causes the condition.

Together, we’re making sure that one day everyone will breathe clean air with healthy lungs.
