Hearts and Minds Diabetes Ball
Change the future for children with Type 1 diabetes
Help us make a difference for children with type 1 diabetes by making a donation to the 2023 Hearts and Minds Diabetes Ball.
Inspired by three boys, Brayden Filippone, Tristan Doody and Lachlan Comito (pictured left), all diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at a young age, their families came together and through friendship wanted to make a difference and have some fun whilst doing so, and the Hearts and Minds Diabetes Ball was born.
Donate today and help our dedicated researchers and clinicians continue their ground-breaking work in diabetes research and help find the answers needed to change the future for our children like Lachlan, Tristan and Brayden.
