Hi,
I've been type 1 for 12 years this August and so far have managed without ever knowing another diabetic my age. Recently I've been struggling and I'd like to meet someone around my age that understands what it is to be type 1 day to day. I realise this is a bit of a strange request but I wondered if there are any T1's in Liverpool that would want to meet for a cuppa? My other half, Jake will probably come along too, feel free to bring a friend. Safety in numbers and all that!
Oh, My name's toni, here's a picture of me sporting my fancy new BM monitor - freestyle libre, it's awesome. I'm a film fanatic that makes shorts, writes reviews and enjoys being social when my BM's allow! My Twitter is @Tonigarden89
Let me know if anyone's interested.

Hi! Manchester here, sorry :(
Hope you find someone more nearer to you, it can be tough when you know nobody who gets it

Thanks Aaishah, I thought there would have been more response from Liverpool but maybe I need to try a different approach. Thanks for the message tho :)
