This is so powerful. PLEASE do watch, I would really appreciate people understanding more about what this condition feels like
🔊Sound on!🔊 We're excited to introduce our new film, ‘What a cure feels like’, celebrating our transformation to Breakthrough T1D! The film features real people affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D) and captures the relentless nature of living with T1D and the hundreds of extra decisions made each day. We would like to say a special thank you to @tara_humphrey and her daughter Tahlia, @LisWarren, @joem_ and his partner Salman and @Jonpeach5 who shared their experiences and worked alongside us to create this film. Together, let's raise awareness and inspire hope for a future without T1D💙 #BreakthroughT1D #WhatACureFeelsLike #T1D #GBDoc

"It was fantastic and I would encourage anyone to do it, writer or not." Lots of lovely feedback from participants in the Sensing the Sea walkshop @thisislaurent and I ran as part of @MargateBookie last Sunday. Thanks to everyone who took part so wholeheartedly. – at Margate, England

Mary Elizabeth Armstrong (18) and sister Margaret (21) were born almost exactly 3 years apart. They died on exactly the same day because police and courts failed them. Worse, they've been forgotten. Today is the 50th anniversary of their deaths, this thread is for them. /1

My turn to choose the book club book! Feeling the bookish weight of responsibility. I get to select three for people to vote on - is there anything *excellent* you’ve read lately that would work?

So pleased to be bringing this writing in nature workshop, originally developed in Dorset, to my home in #Margate as part of @MargateBookie. It's been great fun adapting the format with @thisislaurent - can't wait to do this! – at Margate, England

#Diabetes should not be anyone's punchline. A chronic illness is not a joke. Please do better @guardian @stephen_collins #GBDoc #PeerSupport #T1D #T2D #Mody Cj
Hi @guardian @stephen_collins - love your cartoons, but I don’t love this reference to diabetes. Really disappointing to see
