Eating disorders are serious mental illnesses that ruin and, too often, take lives. We estimate that they affect 1.25 million people in the UK of all ages, genders and backgrounds.

And with your help, we’re determined to ensure everyone gets the support they need and deserve.

Cystic Fibrosis Trust
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic condition affecting more than 11,148 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. We are in a time where there will be more people living with CF in the UK than ever before. For many people with CF, lives are getting longer and healthier. However, not everyone with CF can benefit from the latest treatments, and they are not a cure.
