Each year during the week of the 21st of November CF Europe and patient associations in almost 40 European countries organise the European CF Awareness Week, to fight for better and longer lives for all people living with CF.

We want to make the public aware of Cystic Fibrosis and the problems patients have to cope with.  Although 1 of 30 Europeans carries the gene that can cause CF, few people know of the disease and the patients and their families have to fight for understanding and support every day. We call on the public to join our solidarity actions, to support our fight for a better and longer life for all people with CF.
