Family inspired to take on challenge for charity

- By SOFIE JACKSON [e-mail] @HullLive

A FAMILY who know how devastating a cystic fibrosis diagnosis can be recently tackled an assault course in support of poorly children with the life-limiting genetic disease.

Melissa and Andrew Storr, from Hull, discovered their daughter Charley-Sue, two, had cystic fibrosis from the NHS heel prick test when she was just two weeks old.

Parents who both carry a gene of the recessive condition have a 25 per cent chance of having a baby with cystic fibrosis in each pregnancy. The disease causes excessive mucus build-up and scarring of the lungs, which can result in reduced lung function over time.
