Story

Our Dad/Grandad, was known well by many people; he was kind, caring and giving. He has left a massive hole in all our lives and will remain part of many stories, our memories and life events. Helping us be the best versions of ourself, He was a great man; who will be terribly missed. 1,200,000 people live with diagnosed COPD, just like Victor. He struggled evey day to breathe, something so simple that we all take for granted; we do it without realising. we would like to raise awareness of COPD and the lack of funding, research and interventions available. The british lung foundation fund research into the causes of lung disease, improvement of diagnostics, treatments and cure. They rely on donations to support researchers at many stages of their career, including early on, helping to foster the next generation of breakthrough researchers. Campaigning to make lung research a priority and increase the UK’s overall investment in it. COPD is the UK’s 5th biggest killer but millions remain undiagnosed, research is cruicial to bring hope and help to everyone affected. Any donations in lieu of flowers would be greatfully welcomed the family. Thank you.
