This Independence Day, join a global movement to build a world where people living with Type 1 Diabetes are understood, accepted and supported. Every day, thousands of children and adults living with Type 1 Diabetes manage a lifelong condition with remarkable courage. Yet, alongside insulin injections and blood sugar checks, they often face something far more difficult to manage... misunderstanding. The Freedom From Stigma Walk is a worldwide initiative that invites people to walk in their own cities, anytime before the midnight of 14th August as a simple but powerful act of solidarity. Whether you walk for one kilometre or ten, your participation helps spread awareness, challenge myths and remind every person living with Type 1 Diabetes that they are not alone.

A Movement growing across the world
As participants register and complete their walks, the collective impact of the movement comes alive here. Watch the number of walkers, cities and kilometres grow throughout the day, reflecting a global community coming together for a common cause.
