Cystic Fibrosis Trust's Clinical Training Fellowship Programme provides specialist adult CF centres with a one-year grant to train adult physicians in the management of cystic fibrosis (CF).
Alice Billin, Head of Policy and Public Affairs at Cystic Fibrosis Trust, said: “Access to Work is essential for keeping disabled people and people with cystic fibrosis in work, which is why we’re pleased to see the Government prioritising resource for the scheme. But we also know there’s more for the Government to do.
“We need greater flexibility in employment and education, to reflect the changing nature of CF and more understanding of disability among employers and educators. We want everyone with CF to live without limits, and we will continue to support people with the condition with their career and education goals. Find out more about our Work Forwards programme here.”

5k Your Way is our new virtual fundraising challenge, kicking off next month. We're encouraging our community to complete 5K – whether you run it, walk it or wheel it – in June and help fund life-changing research and support for the 11,000+ people in the UK living with CF.
