Person with lived experience, Derby

I have lived with type 1 Diabetes for approaching 35 years, and have run the Derby Type 1 Diabetes Facebook group for the last 8 years. I believe strongly in the power of peer support, which led to me working on the Principles of Peer Support NHS England document and various other peer support projects. My real job is as a partner at a top 10 accountancy firm, and my other passions are football and music.
