Involvement

Join our growing community to share your experiences and influence the work of the Trust, researchers, and clinicians.
Make your voice heard
Donate your time, expertise, and the knowledge you’ve gathered along your CF journey - no matter where you are in that journey.
By sharing your insights, you can make sure that the lived experiences of people with CF are at the core of everything we do.
Getting involved
The involvement team have been very good at making me feel welcome and involved. The meetings are always well run, and everyone is given the opportunity to contribute.
– Trust Wide Involvement Group member
Members of the CF community are experts by experience. Whether you have CF yourself, or are a parent, partner, or family member of someone with CF, you're welcome to join our involvement group.
You don’t need any additional skills or experience. You can get involved in as many or as few opportunities as you want to and you’ll be fully supported by the team.
Apart from being really positive for our proposal, I also really enjoyed working with you and I hope that as an organisation, we start to do more of this kind of work for other larger funding applications.
