Got insulin?

Another year, another challenge with Fitbit, raising awareness for diabetes in Aotearoa and the rest of the world! Help a sister in support of this amazing cause; aint shit about me- it's about the people, with 100% of the funds going to Diabetes NZ.

Having a prediabetic mother, I know the fears of worrying for those close to heart- and having a good friend who suffers from anxiety to get insulin for his diabetes, I couldn't pass the chance to get invovled and speak up!

According to NZ stats, approximately 5% of the total population has type 2 diabetes; this is predicted to increase to 7% of the population by 2040. Together we can stop diabetes!

Tomorrow’s prevention, today!
