Thanks for taking the time to visit my page, I'm training hard to complete the 100 mile route and to raise money for Diabetes UK.

Diabetes has touched my family in a number of ways, both my Grandad and Aunt live with it daily. My Grandad was diagnosed in the 1980s and it effected his health greatly, developing a variety of complications he eventually lost his sight. Thanks to medical advances my Aunt is able to manage her Diabetes more carefully and it's that medical research and growth of knowledge that Diabetes UK exists to promote and support, and of course they're striving to find a cure.

"The day we find a cure will be the day we change the world for millions of people forever. The money you raise could be the difference. Until then, we'll fund pioneering research into new ways to make living with diabetes easier or avoid it altogether."
