I'm Walking 400,000 Steps to Help Cure Type 1 Diabetes! 💙

I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in February 2025. It means my body can’t make insulin, which is something I need to turn food into energy. So I have to check my blood sugar, take insulin every day and be careful with food and exercise.

Type 1 diabetes doesn’t go away — but with the right care, people like me can still do everything we love.

That’s why I’m doing the 400,000 Step Challenge — one step for every person in the UK living with type 1 diabetes. I’m raising money for Breakthrough T1D to help find a cure.

Your donation could:

* Give a cuddly bear called Rufus to children to comfort them

* Pay nurses who help in important research trials

* Help scientists find ways to stop and cure type 1 diabetes

Please help if you can — every step and every penny makes a difference. Thank you so much! 😊
