My Story

After a successful year in 2021, where over £16,000 was raised (£19k with Gift Aid) for The Cystic Fibrosis Trust, myself and the CF Mama's are back with another Fundraising Challenge 💪🏼

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic condition affecting more than 10,800 people in the UK. You are born with CF and cannot catch it later in life, but one in 25 of us carries the faulty gene that causes it, usually without knowing. People with CF experience a build-up of thick sticky mucus in the lungs, digestive system and other organs, causing a wide range of challenging symptoms affecting the entire body.

From the 17th May we'll be exercising 20 minutes every day for 1 month, finishing on the 17th June… CF ‘Wear Yellow’ Awareness Day. Our little ones have to do physio every single day to keep them well, and more than double that time if they’re poorly. That could be percussion, ball bouncing, blowing activities, nebulisers or exercise if they’re older. Imagine doing intense exercise every day if you feel absolutely rotten? They have no choice 💛

We’ll be fundraising and raising awareness of Cystic Fibrosis along the way, so please donate if you can. Every single pound counts.

Let’s make CF stand for Cure Found 🙏🏼

Love, Mighty Max's Mama, Pamela x
