At the heart of everything we do at Breakthrough T1D are the 135,000+ Australians who live with type 1 diabetes (T1D), and the eight children and adults who are newly diagnosed each day.

Our Blue Army extends to people like YOU - individuals living with T1D every day, and the families, carers, teachers and friends who support them.  That's not all:  it also includes the Breakthrough T1D team, scientists, researchers, diabetes educators, nurses, parliamentarians, volunteers, corporate partners and donors - all working together toward a world without T1D.

The Blue Army is a movement united to create a future without type 1 diabetes - and we’re committed to seeing that future become a reality.

Can you join the Blue Army without a T1D connection? Yes, of course! We just need people who are driven to make a difference to the lives of those living with type 1 diabetes.

We are thankful for every one of you. With your support, we can continue to make vital progress towards a world without T1D.

By joining the #BreakthroughT1DBlueArmy you can help Breakthrough T1D get closer to our mission to cure, prevent, and treat type 1 diabetes and its complications. Read more about Breakthrough T1D's work and the research we fund here.
