During our Easter break, we will be climbing mount Snowdon to raise vital funds and awareness for The Cystic Fibrosis Trust. When Zachys cousin Theo (now 9yrs old) was diagnosed with CF during his routine newborn screening, our entire family were left in shock and with immense uncertainty of what the future would look like. Little did we know that Theo would be one of the strongest CF warriors there is and continues to thrive surrounded by the advancements in CF therapies. This is with huge thanks to The Cystic Fibrosis Trust. The Cystic Fibrosis Trust is the UK's leading charity dedicated to fighting CF by funding pioneering research, campaigning for access to new medicines, and providing tailored support, including financial grants and welfare advice, to improve the lives of those affected.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic condition which causes sticky mucus to build up in the lungs and digestive system. It affects more than 11,000 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.
