Walk Your Way

400,000 people are currently living with type 1 diabetes in the UK, I want to change that.

We're taking part in One Walk Your Way to help raise money to fund life-changing research and make a difference to the lives of people affected by type 1!

Chase was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in September 2020 after being taken to hospital showing the classic symptoms, thirst, tiredness, going to the toilet more and losing weight.

We spent 5 days in Crosshouse Hospital, getting Chase better and learning everything we could to manage this condition that we knew nothing about. Since the day he got his first insulin injection, he has took it on like a champion ! 

We want to raise money for JDRF as they are a huge part of supporting us at every stage, from leaving the hospital with Rufus (JDRF teddy bear!), to regular updates on research, and offering the chance to attend family activities to connect with others who live with Type 1 Diabetes.

We'll be walking 5km around Girvan on 24th of June 2023, every donation in greatly appreciated!

With your support and your generous donations, we can fund JDRF UK’s important work. Here are just a few examples of what your money can do...

£20 could enable 20 parents to return to work, safe in the knowledge that their child's type 1 diabetes will be carefully managed at school, thanks to JDRF's e-learning modules.

£65 could help a vital research project progress by paying for one hour of research time.

£115 could pay for one person to be screened for type 1 diabetes. Sadly people in the UK still die from un-diagnosed type 1 diabetes complications - this screening could stop this.

Thank you for your support, whatever you donate is really appreciated. Together, we can help JDRF to eradicate type 1 diabetes!
