Campaign Champions are the people who help us make a big impact with our campaigns. They're people living with diabetes who motivate important decision-makers to take action and back our causes by telling them what it’s like to live with diabetes.
As a Campaign Champion, you'll play a vital role in making life better for people with diabetes by:
Helping us improve our campaigns through giving us feedback and having discussions.
Talking to important decision-makers and convincing them to support our campaigns at events and meetings.
Being the face of Diabetes UK by appearing in the media and speaking up on issues.
Supporting our campaigns and sharing your own experiences.
Our Campaign Champions tackle a variety of issues that affect people with diabetes. This year, we're especially interested in hearing from you if you have:
Dealt with diabetes-related complications
Had problems getting the support you need from your healthcare team to manage your diabetes, such as blood tests and other checks and appointments
Faced difficulties at work because of your diabetes.
Been unable to get diabetes technology that could help you.
Experienced stigma at work, at the doctor's office or elsewhere.
We welcome anyone over 18 in England affected by diabetes to apply, no matter your past experience. We're dedicated to making sure we hear from a diverse range of voices, so we're really interested in hearing from those aged 18-45, as well as people with type 2 diabetes and people from African Caribbean, Bangladeshi, Black African, Indian, and Pakistani backgrounds.
