Stefan Haest
A champion for peer support: Stefan was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D) at the age of 11 years. From the beginning Stefan committed to help other children and young people with T1D. Throughout his adolescent years and now as a young man aged 25 years Stefan has volunteered tirelessly to support the teaching programmes run by the Oxfordshire Paediatric Diabetes Team. When he is not studying or working, Stefan has attended a variety of teaching/study days for families to offer practical support, to give a young person’s perspective and to offer peer support.
