We are fighting to make a world where diabetes does no harm

Story

After only running my first 5k a few months ago my friend persuaded me to sign up for the half marathon with her. And here we are!!

I am running for Diabetes UK which is the leading UK charity that cares for, connects with and campaigns on behalf of all people affected by and at risk of diabetes. My dad had type 1 diabetes, through no fault of his own, and lost his life to the illness nearly four years ago. He never complained about his condition or ever wanted any fuss over him. I was so lucky to have him as my dad, he was truly one of the loveliest people I've had the privilege of having in my life. I hope the money I raise can help prevent the unfair loss of more lives.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page and thank you so much for all your donations, I really appreciate it however big or small.

I'm running with a few others and I'm hoping it'll be pretty fun! It's on Sunday the 27th of May and I would love to see all your smiley, cheering faces if anyone is finished exams and fancies coming along! (You can stay at mine.)

Thanks everyone

Love Sarah xxxx
