Patient resources
Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis (APF) is a patient-driven charity that supports patients and families and raises awareness of pulmonary fibrosis through campaigning, fundraising and education. Boehringer Ingelheim has worked with APF on a number of initiatives in recent times.
Talking PF
The “Talking PF” series was a series of mini talks and Q&As about lungs, life and keeping strong for people living with pulmonary fibrosis and their carers. The ‘Talking PF’ series was a collaboration between Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis and Boehringer Ingelheim Ltd. Click on the links below to view the recordings.
