This is a cause which is very important to our Pennthorpe community and was in support of Diabetes UK, a fantastic charity who support those living with diabetes and fund the research which is transforming the lives of everyone affected by diabetes. This research can help to support has already made treatment more effective, affordable and moves us closer to a cure.
