A little girl with cystic fibrosis whose lungs were functioning at just 67% is running around again thanks to a miracle drug.
Harriet Corr, seven, is fighting fit again after enduring years of coughing fits, and a weakened immune system linked to her condition. With her health declining, mum, Emma Corr, campaigned for seven years for her daughter to be granted access to the drug Orkambi - available in the US.
Emma, 42, teamed up with a group of parents whose children have cystic fibrosis to lobby the Government to get the drug available on the NHS. Their first victory was when Orkambi was made available in October 2019 and then another drug, Kaftrio, was also green-lighted in February 2022.
