Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
From Sunday 28/04/19 to Friday 03/05/19 we are cycling 500 miles and climbing over 20,000 feet to take us from the Southern edge of Ireland, Mizen Head, to the most Northern tip at Malin Head. Our trip will take us along the West coast of Ireland, passing through Glengarriff, Ballybunion, Galway and Donegal, amongst others!
Many don't realise that diabetes can severely damage the eyes, kidneys, nerves and other body parts. Diabetes can be effectively managed when caught early. However, when left untreated, it can lead to potential complications that include heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and heart damage.
More people than ever have diabetes. If nothing changes, more than five million people will have diabetes in the UK by 2025.
Diabetes can not only greatly affects the person diagnosed with the disease but can also have a huge impact on those around them.
Members of our team have close family members affected by both Type 1 & Type 2 diabetes. The team are proud to support and raise money for the ongoing research that Diabetes UK is pioneering, hoping that one day it will lead to a cure.
We greatly appreciate all donations towards our fundraiser for Diabetes UK.
Thanks! Sam, Darren, Adam & Josh.
