Welcome to the Auckland / Northland Branch of Cystic Fibrosis New Zealand. We cover the area from the top of the North Island to Pokeno, and provide support to all people with CF and their families and caregivers. We’re a proactive group trying to make life for families impacted by CF a lot easier.

We assist people with CF and their families with:
We’re an active committee, and we organise fundraising events throughout the year to raise vital funds needed to support our community, including Awareness Month activities, the Auckland Marathon, and movie nights. We also hold social get-togethers for parents, families and caregivers. Our committee is primarily made up of parents of people with CF however we also have several committee members who do not have family connections but who feel very connected with our cause.
Our people with cystic fibrosis do not socialise due to issues around cross infection. The Auckland / Northland Branch has various ways for our community to connect.
We have an Auckland / Northland Branch Facebook page that provides regular updates and our e-newsletter is emailed each month and contains articles from our community, photos, updates from Auckland and Starship hospitals, Branch news, diary dates, summaries from conferences and other events and much more. Email our Branch contacy if you would like to sign up to receive the monthly Auckland Branch e-newsletter.
Helping our Auckland / Northland CF community be informed and engaged is important to the Auckland Branch committee.

Life for people with CF is a daily struggle for survival, copious medication, physiotherapy and frequent hospitalisations. Most people with CF and their families will tell you apart from the obvious dream of a cure, their dearest wish is most often simply for a ‘normal’ life. As a Branch, we try and make the everyday easier, by providing a number of support services to people with CF and their families.

I have been involved with the CF Auckland Committee for many years. Being involved with the CF Auckland Branch had made me more appreciative of good health, and brings home the reality that a lot of people, who through no fault of their own, have no control over their health and well-being. I am glad that my contribution can help in assisting people with CF and their families.
