Tuesday was #WorldSocialWorkDay and we were lucky to be joined by a group of specialist CF social workers at our MDT conference and got them together for a photo! ⭐️ Their role is vital in supporting people with CF, their families, and the unique challenges they face. @BASW_UK

Over 1000 of you told us about the cost of living with CF. From your powerful stories, we've been able to secure debates and keep #cysticfibrosis on the agenda. Will you help us to continue to keep CF a priority by completing our 2023 survey? ➡️ https://t.co/NOsHINfojU

The @DWPgovuk could stop thousands of terminally ill people #DyingInPoverty. But so far they haven't made it a priority. This needs to change. I’ve signed a letter urging the Secretary of State to meet with Marie Curie & take action. Will you sign too?

#FridayThoughts🧵 🚗Driving🚗 Most young people with #cysticfibrosis will want to drive as soon as they hit 17 years of age. This makes juggling hospital appointments alongside college/ university and a busy social life much easier instead of relying on family or public tpt
