65_RedRoses is Eva’s story, but we know that the film has had a personal impact on many of you. And you have stories of your own, about awaiting or receiving an organ donation, or living with CF. We hope you’ll share your stories with us!

If you’d like to be interviewed on our blog about how Eva’s story touched your life, or share your own story about CF and organ donation, please get in touch! You can reach us by email, or on the 65_RedRoses Facebook Page, or via Twitter. We’ll post your stories on our blog and share them through the 65_RedRoses network.

As Eva’s story has demonstrated, one person’s experience can touch thousands of lives. By sharing your story, you could inspire others to register as organ donors, learn more about CF, or pass along your message!
