Story

*edit* you guys are amazing! I've surpassed the £250 target, I've now increased the target to £500.

This is going to be 30000 steps per day. Everybody that knows me, knows that I walk everywhere I can and that I like to get steps, even so this is still going to be a challenge as it would be an extra 8000 steps a day to what I normally do. 

May was chosen as it is cystic fibrosis month so it ties in nicely. 

I am doing this for my gorgeous nephew George. 

George was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis when he was two and a half weeks old and seemed perfectly healthy. 

Cystic Fibrosis came as a huge shock to everybody in the family, it’s so rare and both my brother and my sister in law needed to be carriers of the faulty gene, neither of them knew that they were carriers , 1 in 25 are, even then it’s only a 1 in 4 chance.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic condition which causes sticky mucus to build up in the lungs and digestive system. It affects more than 10,800 people in the UK. One in 25 of us carries the faulty gene that causes it, usually without knowing. Cystic fibrosis comes with challenges, affecting our physical health, mental wellbeing and how we choose to live our lives. But our community is uniting towards the ultimate goal of effective treatment for all.Cystic Fibrosis Trust is the charity uniting people to stop cystic fibrosis.
