We give respite holidays (within the UK) to families who have a child suffering with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Every family we help has been referred to us by their CF child's hospital. The children and their families come from all over the UK and we help almost 200 families each year. When a family is referred to us they are never turned down for a holiday. However, they occasionally have to wait until we have sufficient funds available to be able to help them. Once we are able to offer them a respite holiday we ask the family where they want to go and when (within our budgetary constraints) and then book the holiday for them. If needed we also help with travel to and from their selected holiday venue.
