Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Every week thousands of people in the UK suffer heart attacks, heart failure, stroke, amputation and blindness because of their diabetes. But when people manage their diabetes well they can avoid these life-threatening complications and stay healthy. 

Part of my job as a DSN is encouraging people to live an active and healthy lifestyle. I feel that it is important to ‘practice what I preach’ and therefore on my return to work as a diabetes nurse after a year maternity leave, I have chosen to sign up to Diabetes UK 1 million step challenge to promote healthy living and exercise and to raise money for diabetes uk to help those living with diabetes.
