Raise your voice. Drive change.

Australians living with diabetes should have equitable access to the technology they need to live well. After decades of technological advancement, diabetes technologies are significantly improving health outcomes and quality of life for people who use them. However, there are significant gaps in access.

Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) systems are an established standard of care in type 1 diabetes however, access to insulin pump therapy, a core component of an AID system, is out of reach for many Australians due to our current pump funding model. Unfortunately, for many people this technology is too expensive.

That’s why we’re fighting for subsidised access to AID systems for adults living with type 1 diabetes.
