About the Hospital Fundraising Challenge
The Hospital Fundraising Challenge is when teams compete against each other across the UK to see who can raise the most money to fight lung disease.
In 2015, it ran from from 1 May – 1 November. In December at the BTS Conference, we crowned our Asthma + Lung UK Fundraising Champions. We also handed out lots of other awards, including most original fundraising event, best teamwork and most adventurous.
