People of the Day is sold to assist in raising funds for:
The Cystic Fibrosis Trust
The Cystic Fibrosis Trust funds medical and scientific research aimed towards understanding, treating and curing Cystic Fibrosis. CF is the UK's most common life-threatening, inherited disease and affects more than 7,500 babies, children and young adults. At present there is no cure for CF, but the faulty gene has been identified and doctors and scientists are working to find ways of repairing or replacing it. One of the main objectives of the Cystic Fibrosis Trust is to fund this work.
The Trust supports specialist trained CF nurses and physiotherapists who can help CF patients live at home. It can lend CF patients specialised equipment, and it also provides support for the families of CF sufferers.
