Episode 5
As it's 'FeBrewary', in this month's episode Lucy hosts her own virtual tea party on the pod. Joining her for a brew is David Ramsden, Chief Executive at the Trust, and our supporter Paul, who is 70 years old and has CF.
This month also marks the end of our 60th anniversary year, so Lucy, David and Paul will be chatting about the progress we’ve seen over the past 60 years and reflecting on what’s changed for the CF community in that time. They'll also take a moment to look to the future, and the work that needs to be done to ensure everyone with CF can live a long and full life.
"We've done so much as a community, but we're going to keep running hard to do more," says David Ramsden.
