Today, NICE have given approval for the life-changing #cysticfibrosis modulator drugs to be made available on the NHS in England. This follows many years of campaigning by Cystic Fibrosis Trust and people right across the CF community. ow.ly/XGMs50SmgJR

Following today's update from NICE, our Chief Executive, David Ramsden, has shared this statement.
A statement from David Ramsden, "The latest update from NICE confirms that no one will lose their current access to the modulator treatments and indicates that commercial negotiations between NHS England and Vertex are the likely next step. We are expecting another update at the end of January and are hopeful that all parties will now work swiftly to end the uncertainty for all of those who could benefit from these medicines in the future."
