The Business of Healthcare Podcast with Tara Humphrey

What if the common perceptions about living with type 1 diabetes were completely wrong? Join us for an engaging conversation with Chris Bright, a dynamic advocate who is reshaping the narrative around this condition. Chris, who successfully manages his diabetes while excelling in sports and serving as the Community Partnerships and Events Lead at Breakthrough T1D UK, formerly known as JDRF UK, shares his inspiring journey.

Hear about the importance of education and awareness, and how collaboration between healthcare providers and organisations can lead to better support for families facing similar challenges.

As we discuss the anticipation of Breakthrough T1D's upcoming campaign, you'll hear about the personal stories and collective efforts that drive advocacy and hope. Whether you're directly affected by type 1 diabetes or simply eager to learn more, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration from Chris's remarkable journey and the communities he's helped to build.
