Story

As a Diabetes and Tissue Viability Specialist Podiatrist I manage daily the Physical, Psychological and complex complications Diabetes has on an individual.  I started running approximately a year ago to help me manage my mental health following a challenging day at work.  It is now my turn to put my running to good use and assist my patients and fellow colleagues with the complexities of Diabetes.

Please can you help me and the Diabetes team raise enough money to secure funds for the essential research required in managing this complex condition.

I am petrified but looking forward to the challenge which lies ahead during training and the marathon itself.  Please follow my page and I look forward to organising some great events over the coming months.
