A PRIDE of Scotland award winner from Cumnock is taking more steps to educate people about type 1 diabetes.

Lochlan Murdoch launched the charity, Lochlan's Legacy, alongside his mum Lesley in 2020, to raise awareness of type 1 diabetes which he was diagnosed with at a young age.

Since then, his charity work has been endless, which culminated in him being awarded the 'Teenager of Courage' prize at the Pride of Scotland awards back in May.

Now Lochlan and the charity are launching a roadshow - Beyond Blood Sugars - which will aim to educate people further about the condition.

The free event for those aged 12-25 will take place at the Park Hotel in Kilmarnock on Sunday, October 2024 from 1-3pm.

It will give people the chance to socialise and speak with people who have been affected by the diagnosis in some way.

More information can be found on the Lochlan's Legacy Facebook page and tickets can be obtained online.
