Virtual Triathlon Challenge

My Activity Tracking

Your support to my challenge has helped me provide:

120

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

OR

60

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

4

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

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

I have registered for the Virtual Triathlon, an challenge for Breakthrough T1D (the type 1 diabetes charity). From 1 February to 29 March, I will be swimming, cycling and running towards a cure for type 1 diabetes (T1D).


My partner was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at 22, and if a charity hadn't referred him for an emergency blood test, who knows what would have happened. Its so important for me that we try and find a cure, or at least a way to improve the quality of life and effectiveness of meditations for all diabetics🩵🙌

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.
