Join us on Tuesday 13 January from 7pm to 8.30pm for an informative virtual event dedicated to discussing and learning more about type 1 diabetes (T1D) technology.
Take part in a virtual event where we explore how new treatments are transforming the way people manage T1D – from hybrid closed-loop systems and DIY tech solutions to NHS rollouts.
This event will highlight the progress made over the past year and look ahead to what’s next in T1D technology. You’ll hear from leading researchers, healthcare professionals, tech companies, and people living with T1D, with opportunities to ask questions and connect with others in the community.
If you’re curious about new devices, interested in NHS pathways, or navigating your own tech journey, this event is a chance to learn, engage, and be inspired by the future of T1D care.
Whether you’re newly diagnosed or have been living with T1D for years, this event is for you!
Throughout the session, you’ll hear from a variety of speakers, including Breakthrough T1D staff, health care professionals and researchers, with more to be announced soon!
As part of the session, there will be a variety of type 1 technology companies sharing information on the range of devices and technologies available to help manage T1D.
This is a free event.
Any donations made at the point of registering are welcome and will help us continue our pioneering work.
