Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that slowly destroys the lungs and digestive system, eventually cutting life short – only half of those currently living with the condition will celebrate their 40th birthday.
We are the only UK-wide charity making a difference for people with cystic fibrosis, and those who care for them. We invest in cutting-edge research, drive up standards of care, campaign hard and shout loud about the issues that matter.
We believe cystic fibrosis is beatable, but we need your help.
Make-A-Wish UK grants magical wishes to children and young people who have been diagnosed with a critical illness.
