Steps Goal:
I'm walking in Perth to turn type one into type none and bring awareness to this illness!
I've lived with Type 1 Diabetes for 99% of my entire life. Being diagnosed around the age of 1 years old, I am now in my late 20s. Having taken thousands upon thousands of injections, finger pricks and having so many ups and downs, I'm joining the world's largest walk for a future without type 1 diabetes (T1D) at Burswood Park on Sunday 9 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.
This illness does not discriminate and can cause a magnitude of serious life impacting complications from complete blindness, limb amputation, severe mental health issues (burnout, anxiety, depression), heart problems and permanent nerve damage.
Please support my walk today.
