NF Heroes

At NF Ireland we aim to be a voice for NF patients and their families. During our work we often meet people who work hard to raise awareness for NF and to fundraise so that we can continue to be a voice for NF patients and their families. We call these people our NF Hero’s

To honour these great people we have created this new section of the site. This section looks to honour those champions and how they have helped raise awareness for NF. If you would like to nominate a NF Hero please, send a brief paragraph or 2 along with a few pictures to info@nfaireland.ie
