Team Pure Filth is taking on the ultimate challenge – Tough Mudder! On Saturday 25th October we’ll step up to the plate, ready to give it our all for what is considered one of the hardest physical challenges on earth! Our 22 strong team has dedicated several months to training, and for many of us, this event will make us face our fears head on!

The team is raising money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. It’s an incredibly worthwhile cause about which you can read more below.

Please give generously!

The Cystic Fibrosis Trust is the only UK-wide charity making a daily difference to the lives of people with cystic fibrosis and those who care for them. Cystic fibrosis is a life-shortening genetic condition that slowly destroys the lungs and digestive system. The faulty cystic fibrosis gene controls the movement of salt and water in and out of the cells within the body.

People with cystic fibrosis face a lifelong challenge, involving vast daily intakes of drugs, time-consuming physiotherapy and isolation from others with the condition, just to stay healthy.

1 in 25
 of the UK population carries the faulty cystic fibrosis gene, most without knowing it. If two carriers have a child together there is a 1 in 4 chance the baby will be born with cystic fibrosis.

3 
babies are born each week with cystic fibrosis.


2 
people die every week due to the condition.

50% 
of people with cystic fibrosis in the UK will live to celebrate their 40th birthday.

The Cystic Fibrosis Trust works to beat it, and to make a daily difference to the lives of those with cystic fibrosis and the people who care for them. The charity invests in cutting-edge research, drives up standards of care, offers support for everyone affected by cystic fibrosis, and campaigns hard and shouts loud about the issues that matter.
Cystic fibrosis is beatable. With your support it is a battle we can win.
