Merry Christmas and Season's greetings 

The offices of Cystic Fibrosis Ireland and TLC4CF will close for the Christmas Holidays on Wednesday, December 23rd and will reopen on Monday, January 4th at 9.00am.

Thank you to everyone for their support during 2020, which we know was a difficult year.

A special thought for those with CF in hospital over the Christmas period, those who cannot be with their families due to restrictions and especially to those families who experienced a bereavement in 2020.

In case of emergency you can contact a member of the CFI staff on 087 710 5381.

On behalf of all of us in CFI, we wish you much happiness and good health and better things to come in 2021

Take care and stay safe

CEO, CFI                            Chairperson, CFI 

Christmas Eve

by Celia and Ruth Duffin

‘A cup of milk
And a wheaten cake,
And a spark of fire
For the Travellers’ sake.
A door on the latch,
A light on the pane,
Lest the Travellers pass
In the wind and rain.
Food for the fire
And candlelight
The Travellers’ Blessing
On us this night.’

 Ruth Duffin (1877-1968) was born in Belfast. She wrote this beautiful poem ‘Christmas Eve’ with one of her six sisters - Celia Duffin (1887-1983).
