However tough the past year has been for all of us, it’s challenged those facing a higher risk, due to underlying conditions, such as Cystic Fibrosis, even more.

And, here in Ireland we have one of the highest rates of Cystic Fibrosis across the world. So, the work of Cystic Fibrosis Ireland is never done.

Maria Driscoll’s husband Kevin suffered from Cystic Fibrosis. She told us about the important work they do along with Louise Galvin, Ireland rugby player, Kerry GAA footballer and Cystic Fibrosis Ireland ambassador. You can support the by donating online at 65RosesDay.ie or by taking part in a 65 Roses Team Challenge.
