Story
UEA cheer dance are taking part in the JDRF step challenge!💙🤍 Our angels are attempting 10,000 steps a day for 40 days👼🎀. 400,000 people are currently living with type 1 diabetes in the UK, so we want to help raise as much money as possible to fund life-changing research and make a difference to the lives of people affected by type 1!🫶
With your support and your generous donations, we can fund JDRF UK’s important work. Here are just a few examples of what your money can do...
💙 £20 could enable 20 parents to return to work, safe in the knowledge that their child's type 1 diabetes will be carefully managed at school, thanks to JDRF's e-learning modules
💙 £65 could help a vital research project progress by paying for one hour of research time.
💙 £115 could pay for one person to be screened for type 1 diabetes. Sadly people in the UK still die from un-diagnosed type 1 diabetes complications - this screening could stop this.
We are so excited to raise money and get active and we will be arranging lots of wellness walks for our angels to meet up and do this challenge as a team!! We are very grateful for anyone who would like to support us and are so excited to get started. Whatever you are able to donate is really appreciated. Together, we can help JDRF to eradicate type 1 diabetes!
