Campaign idea: Sarah supports young kidney patients
After uncontrolled diabetes led to chronic kidney disease, Sarah began supporting other young patients across Manchester.
This story
Sarah was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at 11, but her blood sugar remained uncontrolled for nine years until doctors discovered she was resistant to insulin. After visiting her doctor for what she thought was a water infection, she found out she had stage three chronic kidney disease. She now campaigns for earlier detection and offers emotional and practical support to young kidney patients in Manchester.
