My driver, my passion, a palpable passion, is to help and improve the lives of people living with type 1 diabetes. When I think about my journey, I can see how my passion was ignited, fuelled and intensified due to personal experiences. Joining the Blue Circle Voices network isn’t just about advocacy. It’s about igniting change, one voice at a time. As a BCV advocate, I can leverage my experiences, insights and perspectives to advocate for policies and initiatives for equitable and quality access to diabetes care. Turning challenges into opportunities, stigma into understanding and barriers into bridges gives me a path to follow towards a world where access to care is a right, and social stigma and discrimination are things of the past.
