Story

Hi Everyone! I am hitting the ground 'running' and heading to Brighton on April 2nd to conqueror the seaside marathon! Sticking to a new goal I've set which is to run a marathon every year I (physically) can for a type 1 diabetic charity until there is a cure. 

Action4diabetes is a charity I feel particularly strongly about. The sad reality is I'm in such a lucky position to have access to basic medical care such as insulin, glucose monitors, advanced monitors and test strips. Sadly, in South-East Asia, it’s not the case. There is limited access to basic healthcare and being born with type 1 can be a death sentence. Basic medicines like insulin are more of a luxury, The money you donate has direct impact to disadvantaged type 1 Diabetics. I can't stress enough how important this is and please check out their website to see the inspirational work they do.
