Information: 

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic condition. One in 25 of us carry the faulty gene that causes Cystic Fibrosis, which most people do not know.  In people with cystic fibrosis the lungs make thicker sputum (mucus) than normal, which can trap bacteria in the small airways and lead to infection. Symptoms that typically develop include persistent cough, wheezing, shortness of breath and breathing difficulties and repeated chest infections.

The Butterfly Trust was established in 2002 to provide face to face support to people affected by Cystic Fibrosis throughout Scotland. Our services were set up to give the Cystic Fibrosis community of Scotland much needed social support in areas such as Disability related benefits, housing, employment and education. Now in 2021 we are the leading provider of social support for people living with Cystic Fibrosis in Scotland.
