This July, we’re heading to Harewood House for a special walk to celebrate Grandma Gillz turning 65!

Gillian was born with Cystic Fibrosis and wasn’t expected to live past her teenage years. But here we are over six decades later celebrating a milestone she never thought she’d reach — and doing it together, with her kids and grandkids by her side.

Gillian works hard every single day to keep herself healthy- endless medication, nebulisers, physio, hospital visits just to name a few. She is an absolute warrior!

It’s thanks to the incredible care she’s had from the team at Papworth over the years that she’s made it through the toughest times. And with the arrival of Kaftrio nearly five years ago, she’s been able to enjoy life in a way that simply wasn’t possible before.

Being well enough to do this walk at 65 is something we’ll never take for granted.

So we are raising money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, who continue to fund vital research and work towards better treatments for everyone living with CF.

If you’d like to donate, we’d be so grateful 💛💛💛
