One Walk Belfast 2025

We're stronger together

I’m taking part in One Walk Belfast to help raise money to fund life-changing research and make a difference to the lives of people affected by type 1!

Breakthrough T1D funds world-class research, supports the T1D community and campaigns for broader NHS provision of treatments and technologies. Their collaborations with the best researchers in the world have led to new developments in diabetes technology and treatment.

This is where you come in. With your support and your generous donations, we can fund Breakthrough T1D’s important work.

Just £20 could help towards the next big T1D breakthrough. 

Whatever you can donate, it is really appreciated - Thank you!

Your support to my challenge has helped me provide:

40

minutes of Breakthrough T1D research bringing us closer to a cure for T1D.

OR

20

printed copies of Breakthrough T1D's Straight to the Point guide. It covers vital information for anyone living with T1D to help manage the condition.

OR

1

children to have an initial screening test to help to detect T1D in its earliest stages to prevent un-diagnosed complications.
