I'm walking for a world without type one diabetes

I'm walking in Port Macquarie to turn type one into type none!

I’m walking for myself and every other person living with Type 1 Diabetes. In 2022 I was diagnosed with LADA Type 1 Diabetes when I was 27, I am living with an insulin pump that I was fortunate enough to be loaned for 12 months from a program and have since purchased it through my private health.

I'm joining the world's largest walk for a future without type 1 diabetes (T1D) at Westport Park on Sunday 23 March 2025!

Why? To help fund life-changing research aimed at improving lives and curing T1D. 

Type 1 diabetes can strike anyone at any time, and 8 Australians are diagnosed every day. Diagnosis means a 24/7 fight with no break and facing an extra 180 decisions a day to remain safe and healthy. 

Please support my walk today.
