Welcome to my Diabetes UK Million Steps profile page.

To aid my recovery from COVID19, I am doing this DiabetesUK #OneMillionStep challenge, starting today. But I have come to realise that I can't contend with Type1Diabetes, other co-morbidities, life currently in the NHS & putting myself under the pressure of 12k steps a day. 

So I am guaranteeing to do half that. If I can do more - great, but my mental health is more important & besides achievable goals are more - well - achievable!  I know I can consistently aim for 6k a day - even when working from home!

A part of me wishes I could be Superwoman & bounce back from all this & do the million & then some, but I don't have the time - or the energy - not yet!

I could really do with some encouragement! 

 Did you know someone is diagnosed with diabetes every two minutes? As many as 4.8 million people are living with diabetes in the UK right now. That's why this summer I'm taking steps for my own body and for everybody living with diabetes. For all the mums, dads, sisters, brothers, sons, daughters, grandparents, and best friends.
