Thanks to funding from Lotterywest, we hosted our biggest Parents’ Retreat to date, with 39 parents attending the weekend getaway.
This important event provides a weekend of respite for parents with a child with cystic fibrosis (CF). Held at the Dolphin Quay apartments in Mandurah from the 10 to 12 March the weather proved to be just perfect!
Parents were treated to a rare trip to the movies, as well as time to relax and recharge, enjoying the beautiful surrounds of the Mandurah Marina. There were also plenty of opportunities to meet with other parents to chat and share stories. Cystic Fibrosis WA (CFWA) staff were also on-hand to provide any support required.
Many parents look forward to this annual event, returning each year. They provide a wealth of experience to our new parents who may be attending for the first time. New and often long term connections are made amongst attendees during this important event.
