Chris Bright, founder of The Diabetes Football Community, and Jon Peach sit down to discuss all things diabetes and football. With a range of guests, including those who have played at a professional level, to those who play for fun at weekends, we want to raise awareness and support those with type 1 diabetes who have a love of the beautiful game. We hope that our light-hearted conversations will entertain, inspire and provide hints and tips for how those with the condition manage and enjoy their sport. However, everything in this podcast is from personal experience and you should always speak to your healthcare professionals about any changes to the management of your condition.

On this episode, Brighty and Peachy had the honour of sitting down with an inspirational man who means so much to so many within the diabetes community. Gary Mabbutt has played for the England National Football team and captained Tottenham Hotspur to an FA Cup win in 1991 all whilst living with Type 1 Diabetes. His example has inspired children and adults all over the world for decades to believe that their condition shouldn't stand in the way of achieving their dreams. For Brighty and Peachy especially, he's been a idol that helped them believe even in the darkest moments with their condition it wouldn't stand in their way. We talk about Gary's journey from diagnosis to playing for England and now being an ambassador for Spurs as well as vice-president of Diabetes UK. An incredible story which you won't want to miss... We really hope you enjoy it!
