Jackie Simpson, our mum, passed on June 26th 2020. She passed peacefully and will be missed immensely. Jackie was diabetic and avidly supported the cause. Instead of sending flowers or money, please instead consider donating to support a diabetes charity, Tan, Richard, Edmon, Andre

Every 2 minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with diabetes. We know that diabetes is a relentless and devastating condition. Coronavirus is an emergency health crisis like no other and touches every part of our lives, and the lives of the communities we work with. There are 4.8 million people with Diabetes in the UK who are at high risk of serious complications resulting from Coronavirus. Many are feeling vulnerable and scared right now. They urgently need our support.Many of us are isolated at home trying to find ways we can support the communities we belong to. That's where the Diabetes UK 2 Minute Challenge comes in.Please show your support for my Diabetes UK 2 Minute Challenge by making a donation on my fundraising page, to allow Diabetes UK to keep answering the record numbers of calls, emails, web-chats and social media posts each and every day, helping people to access the help and information they desperately need in these worrying and uncertain times. Thank you.
