Introducing the Cystic Fibrosis Trust

The Cystic Fibrosis Trust is the UK's only national charity dedicated to all aspects of Cystic Fibrosis (CF). We fund research to treat and cure CF and aim to ensure appropriate clinical care and support for people with Cystic Fibrosis.

Our Head Office is in Bromley, Kent, but we have fundraisers and Expert Patient Advisers based throughout the UK.

In addition to our staff, we have Research, Medical and Gene Therapy Advisory Committees who make recommendations to our board of Trustees for final approval of funding projects that are of important and/or immediate clinical benefit to those with Cystic Fibrosis.

Our work is also assisted by Patrons and other celebrity supporters, along with Ambassadors who have CF themselves.

Since the founding of the CF Trust in 1964, we have been working to improve the lives of people with CF, raise the profile of CF and fund research into a cure.

Our objectives are to:

  • Fund medical and scientific research to develop a cure and provide effective treatments for Cystic Fibrosis.
  • Ensure appropriate clinical care for those with Cystic Fibrosis.
  • Provide information, advice, support and, where appropriate, financial assistance to anyone affected by Cystic Fibrosis.
