On Wednesday it was World COPD day!

Pulmonary rehabilitation is a vital exercise and education programme designed to help people living with long-term lung conditions manage breathlessness, build strength, and improve their quality of life.

Yesterday our pulmonary rehab patients took part in a sponsored walk around the Physio Gym at George Eliot Hospital to
raise funds for George Eliot Hospital Charity

Funds raised will go towards enhancing pulmonary rehab services, purchasing specialist equipment, and supporting patient wellbeing activities.
