I will do everything I can Chris, colleagues could contact MPs to support schools and communities in practical and financial ways to ensure all those with diabetes are included
Anything you can do to raise the need for this Sue would be amazing! If any of your former colleagues or your amazing contacts could champion this need, it would be so incredibly helpful ๐. Thank you as always for your support ๐. @afPE_PE
@sarahjolney1 - you're my MP. Please support this initiative @ChrisBloore is taking to parliament on 3rd September - Diabetes in Sport - hopefully raising awareness and action on the lack of inclusivity in sport for diabetics. As a type 1 D, I know how tough it is.

Chris, huge congratulations I am so proud of you and all that you continue to do to explode the myths around Type 1 diabetes, the advantages PE, sport & PA can have in managing our condition. As well as supporting the workforce and communities. Anything I can do to support you,โฆ
