JDRF will be hosting the annual Sun Life Walk to Cure Diabetes in Barrie at Heritage Park on Sunday, June 11, 2023.  The walk is the largest fundraising event in Canada that unites the Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) community and raises funds for T1D research.  2023 is the 30th anniversary of the walk and we are excited to celebrate 30 years of progress, commitment, and improving lives for people affected by T1D. Together we walk to cure T1D.
