There are plenty of ways to get involved with the Trust and help other young people with CF. Here are some current opportunities that you might find interesting:
New online events with CF Youth
Make friends, have fun and learn new skills (all from the comfort of your own home!)
Are you aged 8-25 with CF or close to someone who is? Over the next few months our youth programme is running fun and exciting online events every week (mostly on Fridays). From Games Nights, to free online skill workshops, to movie nights, we have something for everyone.
Keep up to date with what’s on at @CFTrustYouth on Twitter or get in touch with us at cfyouth@cysticfibrosistrust.org.uk.
Youth Advisory Group (YAG)
YAG is made up of young people aged 14-25 who are living with CF or close to someone living with the condition. Find out more about YAG and see how you can influence work at the Trust and ensure that the voices of young people with CF are heard.
