Diabetes campaign smashes fundraising target

A parent-led campaign to help children with Type 1 Diabetes has smashed its fundraising target.

Monitors4Kids set out in July 2018 to raise £120,000 over two years but has already reached the milestone in just 18 months.

The campaign funds continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology which is an alternative to potentially painful finger prick testing.

It's leader, Jo Wilkinson, is thanking the Manx community and businesses for their support calling the success a 'fantastic achievement'.
