The Breakthrough T1D Sit Up Challenge is a free August fundraising challenge celebrating the first big breakthrough in T1D history.

Take on 1922 sit ups (62 a day) across August to mark the year that insulin was first used to treat type 1 diabetes (T1D) proving for the first time that blood glucose could be managed and that living with the condition was possible.

Your involvement celebrates the past; your fundraising powers the next big breakthroughs in T1D research.

Research didn’t stop in 1922, and we won't stop until there’s a cure.
