Discovery One Walk

We're stronger together

*scroll down for updates!

Jack is taking part in a 4km “Discovery One Walk” to help raise money to fund life-changing research and make a difference to the lives of people affected by type 1 Diabetes, like his Dad Wayne!

400,000+ people are currently living with type 1 diabetes in the UK, and with your support and your generous donations, we can fund JDRF UK’s important work towards finding a cure. Here are just a few examples of what your money can do...

Just £5 would be an amazing support, every little helps!

Every £10 could help run a research laboratory for 10 minutes - bringing us 10 minutes closer to finding a cure for type 1 diabetes.

Every £25 could pay for an hour of research nurse support for someone involved in a clinical trial, which could ultimately lead to the next big breakthrough. Without this support, there would be no trial.

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

The Shadbolt Family - Raising Money for JDRF

Wednesday 5th Jun
As most of you already know Wayne was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes as an adult, he's been a trooper and really just got on with it and its daily challenges, mostly interfering with his golf game I'm sure he would say, well that's what he likes to blame it on anyway! But for those who don't know, it's a daily challenge monitoring blood sugar, food intake, energy levels, stress, heat and all sorts of other factors that come into play when managing Type 1 diabetes.

So Wayne, Jack and I are off on a 10 lap walk of Alexander Stadium in Birmingham, host of the 2022 Commonwealth games, to raise money for JDRF. JDRF, the leading Type 1 Diabetes charity, do vital work in supporting people diagnosed with Type 1 and funding research towards a future without it!
