Story
On 14 November, I am taking on the #NailingDiabetes challenge to help Diabetes UK nail a cure. I am painting my nails blue to help raise awareness of diabetes - and make more research breakthroughs possible. I'm doing it for everyone living with diabetes. There are 4.8 million people living with diabetes in the UK, the complications of which lead to over 500 premature deaths every week. The funds I raise are vital to support the work of Diabetes UK, so please make a donation on this page.
THIS IS PERSONAL!
This is obviously a (slightly!!) selfish appeal asking you to get involved, I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when I was 2½ years old and have enjoyed a relatively uncomplicated life due to the support of Diabetes UK and my amazing healthcare teams.
