Kia ora koutou;
In my journey, both personal and professional, I've encountered many challenges, but few as close to my heart as the battle against Type 1 diabetes. As a father to a brave and spirited daughter, Guille, who has been living with this condition since she was three, I've experienced firsthand the complexities and emotional turbulence that come with this diagnosis. It's a journey that has reshaped our family, teaching us resilience, compassion, and the power of community support.
Beyond the walls of our home, I've had the privilege of working alongside Anna Serlachius and Dr Anna Boggiss two extraordinary individuals equally passionate about making a difference in the lives of those touched by Type 1 diabetes. Together, we've explored the psychological impact of this condition, not just on those diagnosed, but also on their families and caregivers. Our goal has always been clear: to bridge the gap between the challenges posed by this condition and the potential of technological tools to make life a bit easier, a bit more hopeful.
Today, I stand with a heartfelt plea to my professional network and beyond. I invite you to join us in this mission by supporting the pledge at:

It's more than just a commitment; it's a call to action for individuals and companies alike to contribute, in whatever way possible, to enhance the lives of those affected by Type 1 diabetes.
Your support can take many forms – from spreading awareness, investing in technology that aids diabetes management, to simply understanding the emotional weight carried by those living with Type 1 diabetes and their families. Every action, no matter how small, contributes to a larger wave of change, hope, and support.
Let's unite in this cause. Together, we can make a significant impact, turning challenges into opportunities and fostering a world where Type 1 diabetes is understood, not stigmatized. Join us in this pledge, and let's make a difference, one step at a time.
