This ⬇️⬇️ @jenni_minto @neilcgray We’re not asking for the latest iPhone or @taylorswift13 tickets. This is life changing technology. To allow us to live our lives a bit easier rather than asking can I? What if? #DiabetesDebateScotland #DiabetesTechCantWait ⬅️⬅️⬅️
This is why closed loop systems are important! Scotland needs a plan to roll out to type 1 diabetics! #diabetestechcantwait #scotlanddiabetesdebate

I’d love to know too. What is Scotlands plan? With #T1D you have to plan. We need reassurances we will have funding next year. How many of us fear our tech will be taken away as it’s “too expensive?” Thank you Foysol for being a voice for us in the Scottish Parliament.
#FMQs: Today is #WorldDiabetesDay. Diabetes tech can transform lives, but Scotland’s waiting lists are extremely long. England & Wales have 5-year plans; where’s Scotland’s? #DiabetesTechCantWait #FairAndEqualAccess @DiabetesUK @DiabetesScot @BreakthroughT1D

🔊Sound on!🔊 We're excited to introduce our new film, ‘What a cure feels like’, celebrating our transformation to Breakthrough T1D! The film features real people affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D) and captures the relentless nature of living with T1D and the hundreds of extra decisions made each day. We would like to say a special thank you to @tara_humphrey and her daughter Tahlia, @LisWarren, @joem_ and his partner Salman and @Jonpeach5 who shared their experiences and worked alongside us to create this film. Together, let's raise awareness and inspire hope for a future without T1D💙 #BreakthroughT1D #WhatACureFeelsLike #T1D #GBDoc

And now let's go back to this slide... Technology helps improve care & management!!! ✖️ There should be no barriers. ✖️ There should be no inequity. ✅ Everyone should have access to tech. ✅ Everyone deserves the best tech, treatments, education & support #dedoc #ISPAD2024

Honoured to chair a roundtable on life-saving diabetes tech. We heard from professionals Professor Partha Kar, Dr Stuart Ritchie & Dexcom, campaigners iPAG & many with lived experience, such as Adam. We must remove barriers to this tech & increase funding #DiabetesTechCantWait

The forward to the #DiabetesTechCantWait report. We were filled with hope when writing this. Tech is not a luxury we’re not asking for the latest iPhone or Taylor Swift tickets. We want some form of a normal life without the extra 180 decisions, the alarms, the fatigue

Awesome. Great having the money for tech that you cant get access to unless you are seen by a team which is unbelievably difficult.

This is amazing for 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 In 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 funding is being restricted, tech options are limited some are being withdrawn totally. #DiabetesTechCantWait #ThisIsntGoodEnough @jenni_minto @neilcgray @ScotGovFM When will 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #T1 get the same service instead of being treated with disdain
*NEWS* Its been the question on everyone’s lips and minds in the world of #T1Diabetes “Will the negotiations with industry re #ClosedLoops succeed?” Official comms out soon Its time. ‘The best things science can provide at the moment - beyond a cure’ Amen #gbdoc 💙

We need to ensure that money for Diabetes Tech is ring fenced for Diabetes Tech. Spending money now will save patients from future complications & greater savings down the line @HumzaYousaf @jenni_minto @neilcgray #PreventionBetterThanComplications #DiabetesChat #GBDoc
We need access to diabetes technology NOW. Diabetes Tech truly can’t wait and we need to take urgent action now. Get tagging! #type1diabetes #diabetes #diabetestechnology #diabetestechcantwait #dontkeepscotlandoutoftheloop @scotgov @scotgovhealth @HumzaYousaf @DiabetesScot

@HumzaYousaf @MathesonMichael I am lucky enough that @NHSGrampian funded my Hybrid Closed Loop but only for 1 year. I've seen 1st hand the incredible difference #HCL makes. Please ensure this technology is properly funded for all Scottish #T1s because #DiabetesTechCantWait
