Breakthrough
Over 400,000 people in the UK face the daily challenges of living with type 1 diabetes (T1D), a complex lifelong condition that
demands constant management.
At Breakthrough T1D, we’re dedicated to addressing the needs of the T1D community.
Through your support, we’re driving pioneering research, shaping policy and making it easier for people to get access to the care
they need.
In the past 40 years, our T1D community has powered some remarkable advancements in treatments - from continuous
glucose monitors to hybrid closed loop. Together, we're making an impact for people affected by T1D.
Join our community and together, we can drive breakthroughs towards a world where no one lives with T1D.

Which charities can I support?
Donations can be made to any national/local charity or recognised good cause such as schools and scout groups.You might choose to donate to BT’s own charitable initiative, the BT Supporters’ Club, which seeks to transform the lives of young people through sport. Or you could choose to support one of our charity partners; Comic Relief, BBC Children in Need, ChildLine or Disasters Emergency Committee. Some people choose to support local causes like churches, hospices, schools or animal welfare schemes. Whatever charity you choose to support will receive more money through Payroll Giving than if you were to donate to them directly.
You can nominate more than one charity to benefit from your donations - and you can easily change the amount or nominated charities at any time. If your chosen charity is not listed on this site you can still support them but please include the charity number so there is no delay in forwarding on your donation.
