RBC UK Urban Art Walk for Breakthrough T1D

Royal Bank of Canada Walk for Breakthrough T1D

Walk With Us to Make T1D History

On Thursday 14 May, RBC UK will be coming together for a meaningful walk to raise funds for Breakthrough T1D, as part of the wider RBC Enterprise initiative to raise over $1CA million for this life‑changing cause.

For nearly a decade, RBC Enterprise has proudly stood alongside Breakthrough T1D, the world’s largest non-profit funder of type 1 diabetes research. Together, we’ve helped drive advancements that bring us closer to a world without type 1 diabetes—and now, we’re taking the next step.

How You Can Support

If you’re joining the RBC Urban Art Walk, we’re asking for a minimum suggested donation of £25 to help fuel vital research and support for people living with type 1 diabetes.

Can’t attend but still want to make a difference? Every contribution counts and every pound creates real impact:

  • £11 provides a newly diagnosed child with Rufus, a comforting plush friend who also “has” type 1 diabetes. With felt patches showing injection and testing sites, Rufus helps children feel understood, supported, and less alone.
  • £25 funds one hour of research nurse support for clinical trial participants—work that is absolutely essential to advancing breakthrough treatments and prevention.

Let’s make type 1 diabetes part of history.
