Meet The Lazy Pancreas
My Background
Hi! My name is Alexandra, I am a Type 1 diabetic and live at home with my husband and two cats in the north east of England in the UK. I have been a diabetic for over 15 years and now help young people come to terms and accept their diagnosis, providing 1-1 support with every aspect of a complex medical condition. I also provide support for all ages of people with Type 1 diabetes.

My approach
To have 1-1 sessions with you (or your parent or guardian) and work together to work with your diabetes and not against. We can focus on general day to day care, healthy relationships with food, exercise and lows, mental health, burnout or just a shoulder to cry on….and everything in between! I am committed to providing a safe and non-judgmental space for you to work with me for you to become the master of your diabetes and become your best self!
My Services
I offer 1-1 sessions - as many as you would like/need. We can discuss a plan that suits around school and your spare time. Or for those older around your work and home life.
A text/email service for any advice you need any time of the day.
Workshops and group sessions on particular subjects.
But why?
To prevent young people heading down the same dark path as I did. To be the support that I wish I had when I was newly diagnosed or lost along the way.
As someone battling the negative affects of diabetes and turning my life around, I want to help you do the same!
I have helped many parents of newly diagnosed children to help them understand this illness and help them with the tools to help and support your child.
