Cystic Fibrosis Queensland is the peak NFP benevolent charity providing support, services and hope to people living with cystic fibrosis. Since 1960, Cystic Fibrosis Queensland has funded research, advocated for equitable access to health services and delivers airway clearance and oxygen equipment; welfare subsidies; and practical support, and service programs to people living with cystic fibrosis. We assist everyone affected by cystic fibrosis to live fuller, healthier lives. Cystic fibrosis is the most common, life-shorting genetic chronic illness in Australia. It attacks the lungs, airway passages and pancreas – slowly shutting down the organs. A child is born with cystic fibrosis every four days.There is no cure.
