Central Coast One Walk raises money for diabetes research

Participants in last year's One Walk held at Davistown

The Central Coast One Walk, a major fundraiser for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), will be on again this year in April 6 along the Davistown waterfront.

The One Walk raises funds for research to find a cure for Type 1 Diabetes and is an annual, national event, raising many thousands of dollars to help fund the search for a cure.

Central Coast event organiser Margaret Sheridan, who lives with Type 1 Diabetes herself, said she knew firsthand how much the Walk meant to people living with diabetes.

“I know what it is like to live with such an insidious disease,” she said.

This year’s One Walk will be officially started by Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid with a number of Central Coast politicians also attending.

There will be market stalls, food, barbecue, a huge raffle with amazing prizes donated by many local businesses, entertainment and much more.

Promotional posters have been designed, printed and donated by local business, KDR Group of Erina. 

Sheridan, a long-term fundraiser for JDRF, will also be conducting other fundraising activities to support the Central Coast One Walk.

All donations received and funds raised by will support JDRF’s mission to accelerate life-changing breakthroughs to cure, treat and prevent Type 1 diabetes and its complications.
