JDRF Patrons are a special group of some of our most generous supporters. Patrons’ gifts are a key part of changing life with type 1 diabetes across the UK.
Join our Patrons’ Club by making an entry level gift of £5,000, or more if you are able.
Your gift can support our overall mission or it can be directed to fund a particular project or a specific researcher whose work inspires you.
“Being a Patron gives me the opportunity to become more involved. It’s more than just signing a cheque, it’s understanding what’s being done with the money. I am tremendously proud of what we have achieved so far.”
~ Dominic, Patrons’ Club Member, JDRF
Being part of a shared vision
As a Patron, we offer you exclusive opportunities to see and feel the impact of your generosity. These include:
- Invitations to inspiring Patrons’ Club research events where you can hear first-hand from world renowned researchers and JDRF leadership
- Tailored publications, such as our Type 1 Discovery magazine, filled with the latest news, features, research and technology updates
- Regular Patrons’ Club e-Newsletters, informing you about significant research breakthroughs and policy development
- Opportunities to meet like-minded Patrons who share your vision.
“It’s really inspiring to hear from the best and brightest researchers about the tremendous advancements that have been made towards a cure. There’s still a way to go, but JDRF has the experts and the passion. As a Patron, I feel that I’m right there with them along the journey.”
~ Erin, Patrons’ Club Member, JDRF
