In April 2014, at just 16 years of age, we were taught one of life's toughest lessons. Our dear friend Triona lost her battle with Cystic Fibrosis and unfortunately passed away. But of course, this wasn't without a viral twitter campaign #SongForTri which resulted in her idol Ed Sheeran singing down the phone to her as she took her final breaths.

Since then, we have made it our mission to continue to raise funds for and spread information about Cystic Fibrosis. In the last ten years, because of the generosity of the general public, the lives of people with CF have drastically changed, with life changing drugs being developed and approved.

But the battle is not over yet. This year, to mark Triona's 10th anniversary, I am cycling the length of Ireland to raise vital funds for Cystic Fibrosis Ireland. Anything you can give will directly impact the lives of people with CF.
