Thank you for visiting our page and helping us fundraise for Breakthrough T1D, the type 1 diabetes charity.

Lucas’s son, Alejandro, was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when he was 16 months old. This was a life changing moment for his family and over the last 2 years every day has been a challenge made easier by Breakthrough T1D. 

Breakthrough T1D is the leading research charity for type 1 diabetes. Alejandro benefits everyday from the amazing advances in technology and medicine due to their research.

Their mission is to improve lives today and tomorrow by accelerating life-changing breakthroughs to treat, prevent, and, ultimately, cure T1D and its complications.

Always, they are guided by a single purpose: As they drive toward curing type 1 diabetes, they help make everyday life better for the people who face it.

To help achieve their mission they:

* Advance breakthroughs and invest in the most promising research

* Campaign for access to the latest technology and treatments

* Support people to live well with T1D

* Unite the T1D community to move forward together

Lucas has since ran 2 marathons to raise funds for this amazing charity, and this time we’re doing it together. We will be running the New York Marathon on Sunday 1st November. Any donation you can make is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
