The Alfie Fisher Man Challenge is all about combining a passion for physically demanding challenges with an ultimate goal of raising both funds for and awareness of The Cystic Fibrosis Trust and also for one other annually nominated local cause.

There is currently no cure for Cystic Fibrosis and the funds we raise go towards supporting research into a cure for Cystic Fibrosis and also help to improve the quality of life of those affected by the disease.

With each Alfie Fisher Man Challenge we also raise funds and awareness on behalf of a different locally nominated person or charity. Previous recipients have been Alfie Fisher and Sophies Smile.

For 2016 we will be supporting "For the Love of Lilly". Lilly is 5 years old and has Cerebral Palsy. She is a happy, bright girl, a little ray of sunshine! She has the biggest smile, which lights up any room when she arrives. Her charismatic nature, and wickedly funny sense of humour make her a joy to be around, she draws people to her, and is utterly beautiful, both inside and out. Lilly's physical disabilities mean that she requires sophisticated, expensive equipment and constant support to ensure that even her most basic needs are met.

The most challenging barrier in Lilly's life and the enabling of her independence, is communication, she has no speech, however has cognitive ability, and the complete understanding of a 5 year old. Her inability to express herself is extremely frustrating for her. Lilly recently spoke through an eye gaze communication aid at her school assembly to tell her peers and teachers about her favourite toy. Something like this would undoubtedly change Lilly's life beyond anything her family could imagine.

The team this year will be raising money on behalf of Lily to hopefully make this dream a reality.
