FRIENDS and family are raising cash and awareness of Type One Diabetes after a popular Great Sankey man died from the condition.
Stephen Shipley, aged 31, died on January 23 this year after being diagnosed aged two with a rare genetic form of diabetes which also affected his dad and two of his sisters.
Heartbroken friends and family members have now planned several fundraising events in the former Great Sankey High School pupil?s memory including a charity auction night in April, the Welsh three peak challenge in May and a fancy dress skydive in June.
