Type 1 on the Run

Type 1 on the Run My name is Aisling and I have had diabetes since 1995. Through social media I have found such an amazing diabetes community.

Now I work with numerous groups and organisations to raise awareness and advocate for the rights of people living with diabetes. I organise CPD workshops with Irish education centres to provide courses for teachers and SNAs around diabetes awareness. I advocate for people with diabetes through the MidWest Diabetes Advocacy Group, Diabetes Ireland Advocacy Group, IDF Europe, the Global Heart Hub an

d more. I help to co-ordinate the Irish Adults with Type 1 Diabetes - Exercise Challenge Group and Limerick Adults with Type 1 Diabetes Group here on Facebook. I have completed the International Diabetes Federation Europe's Youth Leadership Lab in 2021.

Any coeliacs with diabetes out there? I've just learned a pro tip for tax returns!

Tax returns have always seemed so complicated for coeliacs. You mean I have to file away a receipt for every gluten free item I buy? And I have to separate my shopping into 2 groups to get 2 receipts?: gluten free food and everything else. There has to be a better way, and there is!

Tesco, Supervalu and Dunnes provide coeliac certificates of expenditure for club card users. This will show your yearly spend on gluten free food and you can then use this to claim your tax back. Minimal admin and no hoarding of receipts.

Any more tips, please let me know.
