Oli & Nush at CFWeek, May '11

This week, 8th-14th May is CF Week, the Cystic Fibrosis Trust's annual fundraising and awareness drive. Cystic Fibrosis is one of the UK's most common, life-threatening, inherited diseases.

At the end of last year we completed a short film for the CF Trust called 'Getting Nosey About CF with Oli & Nush'. It stars our friend Oli Dillon, voice of Nok Tok from Waybuloo, who happens to have CF. Oli & Nush have their own fundraising page which we urge you to visit and donate what you can, large or small!

Caitlin Watson, an inspiring girl who won a 2 month work placement with the CF Trust as part of the Vodaphone 'World of Difference' initiative, asked us to create some colouring-in sheets using characters and scenarios from the film to use in her specially constructed lesson plans. They are being used this week to help promote CF awareness in schools across the country.

It sounds like Caitlin made a great contribution there and we wish her the very best of luck with her continued fundraising and awareness raising efforts with the CFTrust. We also like to thank her for her kind comments about our contribution- we were happy to help!
