My Story
Welcome to our Diabetes UK Wellness Walk fundraising page!
This September, we will be walking 5 miles across London, from Potters Fields Park to Tower Bridge.
As a family, we’re taking on this walk to support Diabetes UK, a cause very close to our hearts. Our daughter Amelia lives with Type 1 diabetes, a condition that doesn’t take a day off. Every single day she has to carefully monitor her blood sugar levels, count carbohydrates, and have insulin injections just to stay well. It can be exhausting and overwhelming, especially for a child, but she faces it with incredible strength and bravery. We’re walking together to raise awareness, support vital research, and help make life easier for everyone living with diabetes. Any support means the world to us, thank you for helping us make a difference.
Helen, Alex, Amelia and Oliver x
