Our journey of social responsibility
Cystic Fibrosis Queensland Limited approached us in 2018 and through a passionate advocate, educated us on the relevance of our support for the cystic fibrosis community; kids and young adults living with the debilitating lung condition.

The Benefits of Cystic Fibrosis Queensland

The Importance of Trampolines for People with Cystic Fibrosis
The positive impact of daily exercise
Jumping on a trampoline is one of the best forms of exercise for overall wellbeing, including airway and lung clearance, cardiopulmonary performance, sputum production, and overall wellbeing.
Trampolines are a genuine medical treatment to improve the health of those living with cystic fibrosis and the only fun activity of all the essential daily must dos.
