Reading the paper this morning I came across the tragic story of Jodi and Lucinda Dunmore. Please take the time to read this article in full by following the link to The Daily Telegraph's website-
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/3534412/Cystic-fibrosis-sisters-die-within-months-of-each-other.html
Both sisters had CF, both have sadly passed away within months of each other just aged 19 and 22. I cannot even begin to imagine what their parents must be going through, and I am incredibly thankful that my brother has been spared this disease.
Please, please help us to help The CF Trust find a cure for this devestating disease before it cuts more lives so terribly short.

More Info!
So a few more details..... Like last year, sponsored dancing will take place between midday and midnight, with social dancing alongside from 7pm, and there will also be the now legendary Blues After Party so you can keep on dancing into the night! This year tho, we are planning to have LIVE MUSIC from THREE local Jazz bands in the evening as well as some awesome swing DJ's all day-more details to follow...So grab your dancing shoes for a fantastic day (and night!) of dancing!
We are also planning on having a fun beginners class alongside the sponsored dance, so bring your friends and family and they can learn to trip the light fantastic with us! Our hugely successful taxi dancer auction will also be back, only this time you can buy a dancer for 20mins- and for those 20mins you can ask them to anything (as long as its legal!). How about a mini class to learn some tricks and fun moves, or maybe try a new style with an expert or just dance for 20mins with some of the best dancers in the area and maybe from further afield..... And just to raise even more money there will be a raffle!
To take part or for more info contact Ros on 07811 186824 or ros@cambridgelindy.com Sponsored dancers get in free to the whole event, tickets for social dancing from 7pm are £10/£8 members & concessions.
How it actually works...
The only rule for the Lindy Hopathon is that there must be someone on the dance floor (actually dancing) at all times. You can be sponsored to dance for just 1 hour or any number of hours up to the whole twelve for the really hardcore dance fans! You don’t have to dance every dance in your alloted time, as this is meant to be a fun event not an overly exhausting one! If you only want to do three of four hours then you can do a couple at the start and then some more later on. There will be tea and cake to support all the sponsored dancers!
