One Walk Aberdeen

We're stronger together

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

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...

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.

Every £50 could enable a scientist to use lasers for two hours, allowing them to study the immune cells at the heart of type 1, monitoring the success of clinical trials and further improving knowledge into type 1.

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

Monday 16th Sep

In less than three weeks, on Saturday, 5th October  I’ll be participating in the JDRF One Walk, along with a group of dear friends — to support and raise awareness for those living with type 1 diabetes (T1D). I’m reaching out to ask for your support in this vital cause.

Type 1 diabetes isn’t just a medical condition; it’s a lifelong challenge affecting 400,000 people in the UK, including over 29,000 children. For us, this cause hits home deeply, as we have family members and friends’ children who were both diagnosed at a very young age. The progress I’ve witnessed through organisations like JDRF is truly remarkable, yet there is still hope for a cure.

JDRF is at the forefront of the fight against type 1 diabetes, working tirelessly to:

  • Fund pioneering research to cure, treat, and prevent T1D.
  • Accelerate the development and delivery of new treatments.
  • Provide essential support and advocacy for those living with T1D and their families.

Every pound you donate brings us closer to this goal and makes a profound impact. Your support will contribute to the groundbreaking work JDRF is doing to eradicate T1D.

Please consider making a donation to this crucial cause. Your generosity can help turn the dream of a world free from type 1 diabetes into a reality.

If a donation isn’t possible right now, you can still make a difference by sharing this campaign or even considering participating yourself.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this far, Lauren
