Walk to Cure Diabetes

The Walk to Cure Diabetes brings the type 1 diabetes community together.

It's your day

Kids, mums, dads, workmates, aunties, uncles, friends, neighbours and grandparents join together at the Walk to Cure Diabetes to:

  • to share stories of hope and moments of triumph over type 1 diabetes
  • acknowledge that managing family life with diabetes as a constant companion is a difficult but important achievement
  • take a moment to remember those who are sadly no longer with us on the type 1 diabetes journey
  • share tips and lessons on living better with type 1 diabetes
  • celebrate research progress and pay tribute to the researchers who take us every year a little closer to a cure for type 1 diabetes
  • enjoy the support expressed by thousands of members of your community on the Walk to Cure Diabetes

Type 1 diabetes doesn't affect just one person, family and friends are involved too. The Walk to Cure Diabetes gives everyone the chance to get involved and make a difference.

Cure: it's not a matter of if but when

Research will find a cure for type 1 diabetes but we need your help.

The funds raised at the Walk to Cure Diabetes support the best and brightest Australian researchers working to find a cure for type 1 diabetes.
