Cystic Fibrosis Trust are proud to be the Lead Charity Partner of the Cardiff Bay Run again in 2019 and invite you to join them on the day to run with Team CF.
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic condition that affects more than 10,400 people in the UK, slowly destroying the lungs and digestive system. Living with cystic fibrosis means a daily burden of time-consuming physiotherapy and a vast intake of pills, just to stay healthy. And yet only half will live to see their 40th birthday.
1 in 25 of us carries the faulty gene that causes cystic fibrosis.
5 babies are born with cystic fibrosis each week
2 people a week lose their lives to the condition
The Cystic Fibrosis Trust is the only UK-wide charity dedicated to fighting for a life unlimited by cystic fibrosis for everyone living with the condition. We are investing in cutting-edge research, supporting clinical care, and campaigning tirelessly on the issues that matter, but we need your help. Together we will beat cystic fibrosis for good.
Join Team CF at Cardiff Bay Run 2019 for free and pledge to raise £100. We’ll give you loads of support and encouragement along the way, including:
– Running vest with your preferred name
– Fundraising pack & newsletters via email
– Post race hospitality – snacks, chats and photos!
