Some personal news before the new year... I've taken on the role as the youth coordinator in the North of England team at Diabetes UK ๐ฅณ thrilled to be given the chance to build upon our great work with Together Type 1 already made. Bring on 2025!
Happy belated Diaversary @welshy_89. What a wonderful person to have met all those moons ago over your brilliant, impactful @diabetes_chat. Such an amazing ambassador for @DigiBeteUK and for the diabetes community overall ๐๐ป
Thank you to the @Ryanair staff on the flight from Norway to Manchester just now. Collecting that insulin pen, quite literally life savers!! ๐๐ป๐๐ป

๐Sound on!๐
We're excited to introduce our new film, โWhat a cure feels likeโ, 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 T1D๐

Another great weekend complete @africaoye ๐ a world in one city - started with smiles ended with smiles well done team North ๐ @DiabetesUK
21 years of injections, sleepless nights, judgements from others, and countless bottles of lucozades to keep me still here.
Most importantly though from all of these learnings, yes, I can eat that cake #t1d #diabetesawareness #type1diabetes #diaversary
