Story
On Saturday 26th June 2021 we will be joining a team from the East of England Children and Young People’s Diabetes Network to take part in Hike Snowdon. We will be doing the hike with a group of children/young people with Type 1 Diabetes and their families. The aim of the hike is to raise funds to support the work of the network and to improve the quality of care for all children and young people with Type 1 Diabetes in the East of England. This money raised from the hike will go to supporting activities for teenagers with Type 1 Diabetes. The teenage years can be particularly hard for young people with lifelong conditions like diabetes as they are forming their own identity and developing more independence. These funds will help the network run wilderness camps for teenagers with Type 1 to help them to become more independent and confident in their diabetes management. Any donation that you are able to give to help us raise as much as possible to support these children and young people would be very much appreciated.

Message from Gill and Sarah...
We would like to thank you in advance for all your support. It has been an extremely difficult year for so many people in so many ways. But as restrictions lift, so do our spirits. We are putting our absolute all into this challenge, as we are into our local diabetes service which has also faced it’s own challenges. The only way is up... literally! We look forward to sharing our story with you. #postivevibes #JPUH
