Breakthrough T1D
What a cure feels like

Film & Campaign Description

Our film, 'What a cure feels like', shows the reality of daily life with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Created with over 35 people affected by T1D, this film brings to life real daily experiences – the resilience, the challenges, the hundreds of extra decisions made each day, and above all, the hope for a cure. By telling this story and how we drive towards better treatments and cures, we aim to make a connection with even more people living with the condition to support even more breakthroughs.
