##Cystic Fibrosis is a chronic, life shortening condition that sadly has no cure. For the past ten years I've had the honour of being the Executive Officer of Cystic Fibrosis Tasmania. Through this I've ridden the rollercoaster of high's and low's of working with the CF community. Now I want to give back to them.
CFT doesn't get any Government funding and we rely on fundraising, grants and donations for all of the work that we do. The physical distancing has meant that all of our events have been cancelled for the year and we are projecting a loss of 85% of our income. But we are determined to keep supporting our members and their families who are very vulnerable at this time.
Each May we run the 65 Roses Challenge and ask our members to think of a challenge they can set themselves around the numbers in 65. My challenge this year is an easy one. I'm going to wear 65 LB items between now and the end of June. I'll photograph them and each week upload a collage of pics so that you can keep me on track.

Thank you so much to everyone who donated to this. I ended up in way more than 65 LB outfits and it was great fun. I also raised over $300. I think I'll take on this challenge again next year. Many thanks. Paula
