We're stronger together
Joseph my son was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in January 2024 and this turned our world upside down. All our lives now revolve around his condition!
Type 1 not only has physical impacts but also a massive mental burden and risk of burnout due to the huge number of decisions and constant monitoring of glucose levels and measurement of carbs that is required 24/7/365.
We are so incredibly proud of Joseph and the strength and resilience he shows everyday.
Joseph and some of friends (Caden, Charlie & Ethan) and of course his amazing sister Maisie all of whom are a massive support to him, are taking part in One Walk Leeds 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:
408
minutes of Breakthrough T1D research bringing us closer to a cure for T1D.
204
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.
16
children to have an initial screening test to help to detect T1D in its earliest stages to prevent un-diagnosed complications.
