Cystic Fibrosis WA

Cystic Fibrosis WA Cystic Fibrosis WA (CFWA) was established by a group of parents in 1975. Since those early days, we have grown into a professional not for profit organisation.

Today CFWA provides a comprehensive range of services, in home support, and resources for people affected by cystic fibrosis (CF) in Western Australia. We have built strong partnerships and continue to collaborate with a range of state and national organisations, and contribute extensively to CF research.

“My Christmas wish is definitely for a cure for this horrible genetic disease so that my strong, sassy daughter can be whatever she wants to be and can live a full, healthy and happy life." — Tyson, Piper’s dad. 💖

Living with cystic fibrosis is full of daily routines, medications, and physio, but your support helps kids like Piper enjoy the magic of childhood and thrive despite the challenges.

This year we welcomed 33 amazing kids across our online CF Kids Connect and CF Youth Connect programs. In total we ran a huge 40 sessions full of creativity, laughter, and connection. From crafts to LEGO builds to online games, chats, and everything in between!

Because of cross-infection risks, people with CF can’t meet in person which makes these online spaces truly vital. Connect gives kids and teens a safe place to build friendships, feel understood, and realise they’re not the only ones navigating life with CF.

We’re already planning for 2026 and can’t wait to share what’s coming next 💚

What goes into a CFWA hospital bag?

Snacks, Legos, toys, colouring-in markers…and a whole lot of care. 🩵

When Piper was admitted to hospital, this bag helped brighten long days and reminded her mum she wasn’t alone.

This Christmas, your donation helps us pack and deliver these bags to families navigating long hospital stays with cystic fibrosis.

Check out this short animation we have created as part of our upcoming CF Futures project.

The CF landscape is changing. Many people with CF (though not all!) are now taking CFTR modulator treatments that are making real improvements to daily life; however, they still live with CF and face daily challenges.

As more people grow up without many of the “typical” CF symptoms, it can be harder to stay on top of treatments, maintain motivation, and recognise when you are becoming unwell. This animation is a reminder of the importance of maintenance therapy and keeping up a routine that works for you, even when you feel well; to protect future you.

CF Futures is our new suite of resources that looks at some of these challenges including managing finances, future planning, and some of the physical and mental changes people are experiencing as they’re getting older with CF.

Thank you to everyone in our community who has helped shape these resources. We are looking forward to sharing more with you soon!

🎄 Living with cystic fibrosis this Christmas takes a little extra planning!

Here’s Piper’s guide to a safe and happy holiday:

✅ Morning physio everday
✅ Check how many enzymes to take with every Christmas snack and meal
✅ Don't forget to take meds
✅ Do lots of exercise (this bit’s the most fun)
✅ Mum to check relatives are 100% well before visiting
✅ Evening physio everyday

There is no time off from CF at Christmas; medications, physio and lots of planning are essential for kids with CF. 💙

This Christmas, you can help families like Piper’s navigate the season safely — and bring a little extra magic with your donation.
