We all had a great time at the first Snackpack Christmas party, we had a rodeo reindeer, a magic mirror, a face painter, a DJ, the big man himself even made an appearance and brought some presents for the children 🎅, it was so humbling to see so many T1D families come together.

At the SnackPack Christmas party today, we handed over 100 hypo bags to @MariaLeveridge and the @RoyalDevonNHS Pediatrics Diabetes team. These contain a variety of hypo treatments and will be given out to newly diagnosed Type 1 children. @RDESpecServices @SWSCDiabetesUK
