An appeal set up to raise awareness of diabetes, in memory of a Cardiff schoolboy who died suddenly from complications associated with the disease, has raised more than £12,000 in just three months.
Peter Baldwin, who was a pupil at Whitchurch High School in the city, passed away in January following a short illness.
The 13-year-old’s parents, Beth and Stuart Baldwin, said their son had been battling a chest infection and virus which was masking undiagnosed diabetes type 1.
“Sadly his body was unable to cope with these infections at one time,” they said.
