Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you know our beautiful son was diagnosed type 1 in January 23. This has changed his life for ever. As parents we would do anything to take this away from our beautiful son, but unfortunately we are not able to.

What I am able to do is a small amount of fundraising to support the research so hopefully one day our son won’t be diabetic.

My older brother is also type 1 diabetic diagnosed 40++ years ago. I have seen the huge changes in technology and the support available. For type 1 children and their families. The changes have been hugely positive and have improved life for those living with diabetes but there is still further to go.

Unfortunately as a family we have seen the damage that complications from diabetes can bring. As a wider family the last few years have been challenging at times.

I appreciate that times are hard for families financially, so please do not donate unless you are in a position to do so. What’s most important to me is raising awareness of Type 1 diabetes, and doing something practical to support our son.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
