My mate Chris lost a dear friend to Cystic Fibrosis recently. Himself and his friends are raising money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust by cycling across Vietnam:
In February 2011, I will be taking part in a cycle across Vietnam, covering over 650km in 8 days, in order to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust and to honour the memory of my beautiful friend Kirsty, who sadly passed away in March 2010 at the young age of 21. She had fought with Cystic Fibrosis all of her life and was an inspiration to us all.
Cystic Fibrosis is one of the UK’s most common life-threatening inherited diseases, which affects over 8,500 people per year. It effects the internal organs, especially the lungs and digestive system, which makes it hard to breathe and digest food. Each week, 5 babies are born with Cystic Fibrosis and 3 young lives are lost. There is currently no cure for CF, which is why the Cystic Fibrosis Trust use their funding to research treatments and cures, so that one day it can be cured.
Any donations will be massively appreciated, whether they are big or small! So thank you for taking the time to consider sponsoring me in order to help me reach my £3,100 target.
Thank you, Chris
If any readers would like to donate to this great cause, and wish him and friends luck for this epic and probably exhausting trip, please follow the link below. Thankyou.
