<p>Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is one of the UK's most common life-threatening inherited diseases, and affects over 8,500 people in the UK.<br />Cystic Fibrosis affects the internal organs, especially the lungs and digestive system, by clogging them with thick sticky mucus. This makes it hard to breathe and digest food.<br /><br />On the 8th May, I will be taking part in a sponsored walk for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, along with 2 friends, Jenni and Ellis who both have CF.<br />It will be a challenge, as Ellis had a Heart and Double Lung transplant on the 29th August 2010, and Jenni currently has around 40% Lung function.<br />But we will all support each other, and somehow, walk 10km, around Ashridge in Hertfordshire to help raise awareness and money for the CF Trust.<br /><br />Any donations are greatfully received, no matter how much!<br />And pleeeeease, hope for sunshine for us, because 10km in the rain will not be fun!! Haha.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
