My Story
Welcome to my Diabetes UK Wellness Walk fundraising page!
I’m walking for Diabetes UK this September as I am Type 1 Diabetic myself and have been for 25 years this year. It is a relentless condition that requires constant monitoring and extra decisions every day.
I am proud of what I achieved despite my condition, managing to have a beautiful baby boy even though my pregnancy was a challenge, having a wonderful supportive husband who helps me everyday (and even supporting me on this walk!) and achieving my career goals of being a Solicitor. There have been so many advances in technology which assist me in managing this condition and which have helped me achieve the above. All of the this wouldn’t have been possible without the research and work Diabetes UK does.
I’m also walking alongside my amazing Mum and Dad who have supported me with the condition since I was 6.
My Mum lives with Type 2 Diabetes and so I am also doing this walk for her. Everyone living with diabetes of whatever kind deserves understanding, support and treatments to help manage this condition. One day hopefully there will be a cure for all types of diabetes.
Any donation big or small will be really appreciated. Thank you 💙
