A busy mum from Royal Wootton Bassett will be doing the 1 Million Step Challenge for Diabetes UK after four members of her family were diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes.
The event takes place between 1 July and 30 September, and invites people to push themselves out of their comfort zone, by taking one million steps over three months and getting sponsored for every stride.
It will take Hannah Carter at least 10,000 steps a day to reach her million.
Hannah, 34, is taking part because her father, two sisters and nephew all have Type 1 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is not preventable and people with the condition have to take daily doses of insulin, either by pump or injection, in order to stay alive.
The mum of two, who also runs a make-up and skincare business, has been training hard for the event. She has been walking the family Cairn terrier Sully in local parks with her two-year-old daughter Rosie in a sling on her back.

Good luck Hannah! 🙂
