Our Background


The Julian Benson CF Foundation has been established by one
of Ireland’s leading talent agents and choreographers, Julian Benson. Its aim is to
provide much-needed support and services to CF sufferers and their families.

Julian was diagnosed with CF when he was two years old. He was given a life
expectancy of just 13 years of age but has never let it define him. Through
positivity, exercise and a controlled diet, Julian continues to beat the odds today.

He has built a very successful career as a professional dancer/choreographer and talent agent, becoming one of Ireland’s most prominent entertainment figures and
celebrity Judges on the International TV hit series “Dancing with the Stars”.

Julian understands first-hand the needs and challenges of CF sufferers. Therefore,
he has established the Foundation to make a difference, creating a legacy that will
continue to help patients and families have a better quality of life. This will be
achieved through creating a positive therapeutic healing environment for patients
to rest, recover and be with their families at a very critical time.
