Story

I’m raising money for Type 1 Diabetes because it’s something that has become a huge part of mine and my wife’s life.

Alana lives with Type 1 Diabetes every single day. It isn’t something she can switch off or take a break from. From constantly monitoring her blood sugar and managing insulin, to dealing with the highs, lows and everything that comes with the condition, it requires 24/7 attention.

So, to help raise awareness and money for Type 1 Diabetes research, myself, Alana, Aidan, Tom, Liam, Sam, Liam, Beth and Josh are taking on the gruelling National Three Peaks Challenge — climbing Snowdon, Scafell Pike and Ben Nevis, attempting to complete all three within 24 hours.

It’s going to be an incredibly tough challenge for us all, both physically and mentally, but it’s something that means a huge amount to us personally. We want to push ourselves to the limit while raising money for a cause that is very close to our hearts.

We would be incredibly grateful for any donation, no matter how big or small. Every penny will help support Type 1 Diabetes research and hopefully bring us one step closer to better treatments and, one day, a cure.

Thank you so much for supporting us, donating or even just sharing our page. It genuinely means the world to us. 💙

Three mountains. 24 hours. Nine people. One very important cause. 🏔️💙
