Development of a novel intervention using a person-based approach to support physical activity among families of children with cystic fibrosis in the UK
Qualitative methods and PPI facilitated the development of a family-focused intervention supporting the integration of PA into daily life. This was viewed as acceptable and engaging among families of people with CF. Future research now needs to explore the effectiveness of the intervention for increasing PA behaviour.
