“All of us at LAM Action are thrilled that our charity is to benefit from Aardvarker’s project and the “Walk Tall & Be Free” campaign. Thank you all SO much! We’re a very small charity, but we work hard to ensure that all money raised goes directly towards supporting LAM patients and researching possible treatments for this cruel disease.” Gill Hollis Chair, LAM Action
LAM Action is the UK charity for patients with Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (also known as LAM), their families, and doctors caring for patients with LAM.
LAM is a very rare disease, diagnosed primarily in women of child-bearing age. It mainly affects the lungs, where it causes excessive growth of smooth muscle cells which progressively destroy lung tissue and erode lung function. This makes breathing difficult, often leading to the need for supplemental oxygen and, in some cases, transplantation.
LAM Action has two primary aims:
- To provide support and information for LAM patients and their families
- To educate health professionals about LAM and advance research into LAM
Fulfilling these objectives requires funding, so the charity is also involved in raising money to fund its primary objectives.
