We know we can’t achieve our vision of a world where diabetes can do no harm alone. In our 2020-2025 strategy we set out our ambition to leverage the power of partnership. We’re committed to uniting experts and organisations to drive change, building on existing partnerships, and to keep pushing for more investment into diabetes research.
Today we’re delighted to be partnering with more organisations than ever before to co-fund the highest quality research on the widest range of topics, helping us to maximise the impact of our investment.
The power of partnership
Over the last 10 years, we’ve brought in an additional £8 million into diabetes research through partnerships with other funders, including areas such as:
- Screening and diagnosis
- Type 2 diabetes remission
- Covid-19
- Ageing well with diabetes
- Eyes and sight loss
- Heart health
- Foot ulcers
Plus, in a landmark partnership between the Steve Morgan Foundation, JDRF UK and Diabetes UK we’re investing £50 million into game-changing research through the Type 1 Diabetes Grand Challenge.
We’d like to thank all our partners from the last 10 years for joining us to make an even greater difference to the lives of people with diabetes.
