The LCFC is a research collaboration that is made up of members throughout London and the South East.
All five specialist paediatric CF clinics within the Thames region participate in the LCFC, namely: Barts and the Royal London Hospital, King's College Hospital, the Royal Brompton Hospital, Great Ormond Street Hospital and University Hospital Lewisham. This expanded to include St Heliers and Epsom hospital when we embarked on the study of newborn screened babies in 2009.
