Diabetes Advocacy

Diabetes Advocacy is a website dedicated to those living with Type 1 Diabetes.

It is run by Barb Marche, mother of two from her home. Barb's youngest son Liam was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when he was just two years old. From that day forward, she dedicated much of her time and energy to making the best possible life for her son and for other living with this disease.

Not finding enough information and support for Canadians, Barb set about attempting to fill that gap by creating her own website. Her main focus of course was children's issues but as the site grew, so did the issues important to her and other living with diabetes. She now works to provide information and support to people living with diabetes throughout Canada and the world. Diabetes advocacy has become a full-time commitment taking up much of her time and resources.
