Sneaker Friday is back for the second year and takes place on Friday 18 November as part of Diabetes Action Month. It’s your chance to step up for New Zealand’s largest & fastest growing health crisis and make a real difference to the lives of millions of New Zealanders.

Thank you for helping to make this the best Sneaker Friday yet!  25 November 2022

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We are so grateful to everyone who got involved this year. It was only the second Sneaker Friday we've ever done, and we're delighted by how Kiwis stepped up and got involved.

$17,000 was raised thanks to you and others like you! We raised an incredible amount to support those living with Diabetes in Aotearoa.

Thank you again to everyone who joined us on Sneaker Friday to show Aotearoa - DIABETES MATTERS!
