We're walking for a world without type 1 diabetes in Penrith!
🥷💙 We Are The Sugar Ninjas — And We’re Walking for Sarah 💙🥷
This March, Team Sugar Ninjas is stepping up for the Breakthrough T1D One Walk — and for us, this is personal.
Our daughter Sarah lives with type 1 diabetes.
T1D doesn’t take a day off. It doesn’t sleep in. It doesn’t care if it’s a school day, a birthday party, sport, holidays or 2am. It means constant monitoring, carb counting, insulin dosing, and making hundreds of extra decisions every single day just to stay safe.
It’s brave faces during finger pricks.
It’s alarms in the middle of the night.
It’s resilience beyond her years.
And while Sarah handles it with strength and maturity that makes us incredibly proud, the truth is — she shouldn’t have to.
That’s why we’re walking.
We’re raising funds for Breakthrough T1D, who are driving world-leading research to:
🔬 Replace insulin-producing beta cells
🛑 Stop the autoimmune attack that causes T1D
🤖 Improve automated insulin technology
🧬 Work toward prevention and ultimately a cure
Real progress is happening. But research needs funding to move faster.
So we’ve put on the blue, embraced our inner ninjas, and we’re ready to walk toward a future where type 1 becomes type NONE.
