These days representation is so important, seeing and meeting other Type 1's is my favourite hobby… Matt says I’m the number one Libre  spotter  when we are out and about. I can’t help it! But I do wonder what  it's like for Type 1 children and teenagers, who might feel isolated wearing devices. Well I came across this brand called Type 1 style, they have created a range of soft toys that have devices attached to them on all the common places…. So Omnipod on tummy and Libre on arm. This blow my mind....it's literally the change I want to see -  design that is inclusive.
