St Mary's Church of England Junior School in Old Basing Hampshire are helping to raise money for Diabetes UK.  On Thursday 17th June, the children will be wearing all things blue as this is the charities brand colour.  

Type 1 diabetes currently affects 400,000 people in the UK, including around 29,000 children.  Two of these children currently attend the junior school in Old Basing and I know they will urge you to support this charity which is close to their hearts and their families.  Funds raised help researchers discover pioneering treatments and new technologies that make living with diabetes easier.  Someone is diagnosed with diabetes every two minutes - one day they hope to find a cure.  So please give what you can, thank you!
