Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

Cystic Fibrosis is something that is very close to my heart as both my brother and sister suffer from this awful disease.

It is the UK's most common life-threatening inherited disease, as approximately '1 in every 3000 births' is to a baby with CF. In fact, one in 25 of us is a non-symptomatic carrier of the disease and affects over 8,000 peope in the UK. Cystic Fibrosis affects vital organs in the body, especially the lungs and digestive system, by clogging them with sticky mucus, which makes it difficult to breathe and digest food. The life expectancy of someone with Cystic Fibrosis is just 31 years. As there is no cure for CF, the vast majority of CF patients put themselves on the waiting list for lung transplants. Meanwhile, they can often spend countless days and months in hospital or at home wired to ventilation machines. 

I am raising money for the Knight Foundation for Cystic Fibrosis, which is the CF Specialist Centre that my brother and sister Sam and Emma regularly attend. 

The Knight Centre is a cutting-edge specialist centre providing the best possible care for CF patients.  The doctors and staff are excellent and all the facilities are funding through charitable donations.  Please give generously!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: The Knight Foundation For Cystic Fibrosis gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!  Thanks,

Chloe
