Diabetes Week 2026 🌟
This week, we’re recognising Diabetes Week 2026, taking place from 8–14 June.
Almost 6 million people in the UK live with diabetes, and this year’s theme, Strike Out Stigma, encourages us to challenge misconceptions and create a world where everyone with diabetes feels understood and supported.
Did you know Don is diabetic? He wears a continuous glucose monitor on his left arm.
At yesterday’s Kiltwalk Don was delighted to meet fundraisers from Breakthrough T1D and members of the type 1 diabetes community.
We stopped for a few photos and shared some inspiring stories along the way. Raising awareness matters, and seeing so many people supporting those living with type 1 diabetes made the day even more special 💙
Don reminds us that there are no limits in sport, and Sport Aberdeen is committed to providing opportunities for everyone across the city and shire.
