Over 130 companies came together to help restore Tranquility House, spanning 14 months of construction, restoration and upgrading, we now have a home that will welcome hundreds of families every year. Tranquility House will give families comfort and sanctuary when they are supporting their loved one who is in a Dublin hospital receiving treatment for cystic fibrosis.
As a vital service we rely on donations, and with your support we will provide a free accommodation service, keeping families together when they need it most. By choosing to donate just €8 per month you will help keep the doors of Tranquility House open for evermore.
About Us
Established in 2018, the Julian Benson CF Foundation aims to provide much-needed support and services to CF warriors and their families. Julian Benson was just two when he was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. Doctors told his mother Maura he probably wouldn’t live to become a teenager. But they were wrong…
Courage, an unstoppable attitude, plus Maura’s endless support and belief led to Julian becoming one of Ireland’s leading talent agents and choreographers well known for his role as a judge on the TV series ‘Dancing with the Stars’.
Julian lived with CF for over fifty years, excelling in the world of dance and leading a full, exciting life. He often stated ‘I have CF, but CF doesn’t have me.’
Julian understood first-hand the needs and challenges of CF warriors. He created the Foundation to make a difference, building a legacy that will continue to help patients and families have a better quality of life. To this end, the Foundation has established Tranquility House, Ireland’s first ‘home away from home’ for CF warriors and their loved ones who travel from all over the country for medical treatment in Dublin hospitals.
