We are a group of parents, family and friends of children with Cystic Fibrosis in the Portsmouth area who are raising money to help make the lives of children with Cystic Fibrosis in the Portsmouth, UK area better. We provide equipment and support to allow them to have as normal a life as possible, and to keep healthy. We are also very much a community of families, and, although our children cannot meet, we are there to talk to each other when it is needed. Click here to find out more about us.
